My sleep study doctor said my main issue affecting my sleep is restless leg. He gave me a sample of Neupro which is a patch. It helped a little bit.
Last night I tried grape seed extract right at bedtime and I didn't notice my RLS as much. Hope that helped.
Hello, I'm afraid what you've written has prompted me to ask you a lot of questions because it doesn't seem as if your sleep doctor really hasn't given you enough information.
What symptoms do you have that your doctor diagnosed as RLS?
When you say "sample" did he/she only give you one patch, did they not say that you needed to use one regularly?
Did they not say what drug is in the patch and what dose?
Did they make you aware of some of the risks of using this drug?
The drug in the patch is known as Rotigotine and it's one of a class of drugs known as Dopamine Agonists.
Dopamine Agonists are more or less the most effective drugs you can use for RLS. 10 years ago I had quite severe RLS and wasn't able to get to sleep because symptoms prevented it.
I was prescribed another Dopamine Agonist, Pramipexole and the first (small) dose I took completely got rid of my RLS symptoms.
I don't know what dose of Rotigotine was in your patch, but if it only helped "a little" either the dose was too low, or, despite what your sleep doctor said, you may not actually have RLS.
Hence, that's why I ask what your symptoms are and what dose the patch was.
I have had RLS for many years no tablet's help at the last I went to see a neurologist the best thing I done she put me on pregabalin 75 mg 1 at 6 PM and 1 at 9 pm the best thing ever happened I have been getting the best nights sleep for years all the best Henshaw241241
Would like to know exactly what your sleep study doctor noticed when you had your sleep study done.
