suffer of RLS most of my life
As soon as
requip
came out on the market I was put on it and over the years I was able to withdrawal totally from tramadol ask my dosage for
requip
went up. At the present time I take 6mg once a day extended release of
requip
. Seems to work for me I don't have the issue very often.

Best kind of doctor?
Requip
is working ok after about 30 minutes but i have to take it all day long. What kind if doctor is best for this? Neurologist? My G P seems very uncertain. Also CBD has not helped but does cannabis really help? I hate the disoriented feel. Any suggestuons helpful. Thanks Rescuemom

CBD oil over $80 an ounce each week is worth it to me to stop RLS.
I tried gabapentin,
Requip
, pamelor (so), Quinine, Tramadol. Some worked for a while, but, for me, suddenly, nothing worked. Having the CBD oil, full spectrum, .3% stop my RLS has been a miracle.

Time for a change
Changed me back to
requip
and it calmed down. About a year ago I was having it so bad that my arms would move and jump because of the rls Or that’s what I assume Dr took me off
requip
and put me on gabapentin which was the worse mistake.

WHAT AM I DOING?
In the mean time I am trying to reduce the amount of
requip
I take. I was on 9mg. and I'm now at 6mg. I've been taking it twice a day 3mg at a time. I'm not sure what I was thinking, but I've been taking it farther and father apart.Now I am taking 1 pill every12 hours.

Did not expect this..
I'v been taking c/l and
requip
. Doc said with the amount of c/l I'm currently on 250mg 6 times a day and only getting 60-90 min of relief and my age (57) I would be the perfect candidate for DBS surgery which might grant me 10-15 years of a better quality of life.

RESTLESS LEG NIGHTMARE
Requip
, but what do I do for the full body attack that happens early afternoon? She suggested Lyricra {sP} but that gave my daughter terrible RLS symptoms and I am not big on anything that has its own set of problems. Could I get some input from those of you on other RLS meds please?

Restless leg and pd
My MDS has me on a dose of ropinirole (
requip
) around 7 pm. It usually is effective, but now I'm starting to get RLS symptoms in mid-afternoon. Any suggestions?

Punching legs..so frustrating! 😔
I take
Requip
. It helps my my dose is too low. So I take extra since my doc reduced my dose. I resort to punching my legs. It helps but then I have bruises. So aggravating. 😔

summary of a visit to my neurologist
We'll try putting you on
Requip
, a dopamine agonist. That should help with your symptoms, and helping your symptoms should help with anxiety, depression. If not, we'll start you on antidepressants as the next step. Im on 2 pills of 25/100 Carbidopa Levodopa a day.

Requip and restless leg
I’ve been on
requip
for 15 years- I take 2mg in morning and 2 mg at night. I don’t like it I think it is causing augmentation and I wake up nauseated. I would love to get off but have heard horror stories about withdrawal! Getting off may make my restless leg and Parkinson’s worse!

Grapefruit Juice Day 55 - Currently at 8oz (237ml) Per Day
(
Requip
) Currently - weened off over last 14 days, went from a 2mg extended-release tab once a day to 1mg non-extended release tab for 7 days, then stopped all
requip
four days ago. Just wondering how much of my "ON" time was lost by stopping
requip
completely.

What is it ?
Moreover, met with yet another neurologist who just wrote a prescription for
Requip
. I feel like there's no getting out of this now. Is there a possibility that Pram has done a permanent damage and I might never return to those good old days.

Left toenail has stopped growing
I do also take sleep meds (gabapentin,
requip
and klonopin). My question is: my left toenail has stopped growing. I'm wondering if anyone has any experience with this and is there anything I'm doing med wise that or supplement wise that could be causing this?
