Sores from Neupro patches
My sleep doctor put me on 1mg
neupro
patch and then increased to 2 mg patch. I was in heaven, my rls was almost completely gone. Then I started notice irritation where the patches had been. I stayed on the patches for 2 months knowing how bad they were hurting my skin.

Weight on RLS worse?
I am on the
neupro
patch and it works great but with the festive season and eating to much I have put weight on and I have noticed my legs twitching :-( unless its because I am not feeling so good as I have a terrible sore neck which is causing a constant bad head 5 days now with it!

Does anyone using Neupro see dots or color blocks sometimes?
I know what "floaters" are, but these aren't floaters--they are color blocks that fill in space or sometimes little dots that move across the floor like ants

My doctor prescribed the Neupro patch for me. The side effects explained in the brochure sound scary.
Does anyone have an opinion about the
Neupro
Patch? I have dystonia in my right foot and leg and this causes trouble walking and driving.

"Didn't we have a loverly time the day we went to...Brugge!"
The wonderful
Neupro
patch seems a great boon to many RLS sufferers as it covers you for 24 hour periods which pramipexole etc. don't. On Saturday the Tpebop family went on a coach trip to Brugge (Bruges in French), the so-called Venice of the North, in Belgium.

Case study - an update. (might be of interest to "new" sufferers)
Have tried the usual Dopamine medications. ( Mirapexin,
Neupro
patch and Requip ) All showed varying degress of success in reducing movements during sleep but all left me feeling as tired during the day as when I was on zero medication.

I'm sure this question regarding Gabapentine has been answered before.
I am currently wearing a 3mg
Neupro
patch and am taking 400mg Gabapentine tablets three times a day. I have been on this regime for about two months and initially I experienced a huge improvement in my condition although the nights were by no means perfect.

Has anyone used Neupro patch? Any side effects? This is my second week and have headaches and blood pressure changes.
Still on
Neupro
, have RLS symptoms during day & night. No more headaches, they might have been from high blood pressure. Feelings in legs & arms driving me "crazy" and patch does not always stay on, Also found out that Ins. will not pay in 2013.

Is anyone else allergic to Sinemet?
I've worked my way through Symmetrel (Amantadine) and Cogentin (Benztropin Mesylate) and I used the
Neupro
patch successfully up until it was recalled in the US (2008). Right now I use a combination of long acting Requip (Ropinirol) and a transdermal Emsam (Selegeline) patch.

What does too much Dopamine do to your system?
That is why the Parkinson's meds like Mirapexin and Ropinerole, plus the
Neupro
patch do not work for all of us, or the side effects `are too severe to be taking it. That is why I go a little nuts when I see how high the doses of some of the dopamine meds on this site and others.

Update on my 91yr old mum and RLS.
The Doctor did agree that
Neupro
is not pushed as a treatment because of it high cost, but should she not have success with Mirapex, he is willing to try her on it. So that is a result, only made possible by her persistence, which really it not the way it should happen.

Does anyone else "stagger" their pramipexole meds?
My GPs have refused to allow me the
Neupro
patch and when I tried the highest dose it made me fall asleep during the day. However I am finding it difficult to rest in the early evening, sitting down with the wife and family can be impossible.

I would appreciate comments on the medication I am now taking for RLS - see below
Any comments on the new formulation - ie 300mg Gabapentine three times a day together with four and a half mg
Neupro
patches?
