Thanks to everyone for your input. I am aware of most of your significant points but it is reassuring to know I am on the right track to look at eliminating Requip along with other adjustments. I have a history of inflammation and compromised immunity system so this makes a lot of sense. I did have the ferritin test every six months for a period before and after the infusions and my latest blood work, including ferritin, was acceptable. It has been a life long effort to balance treatments for my various issues and now it seems age is exacerbating symptoms. I am glad I found this site which seems to offer excellent information and support.

Do you know what your ferritin is? Doctors will tell you it is acceptable, but what is acceptable for others is not acceptable for RLS.

Not what you're looking for?
