restless legs syndrome
"I've suffered with restless legs syndrome since long before they came out with a name for it. Requip for me has been a wonder and the only side effect I've ever noticed is the drowsiness. But unfortunately it seems like either the symptoms are getting worse with age or else my body is increasingly becoming immune to the medication as for many years now I experience daytime symptoms as bad as night time symptoms and am now up to taking a total of 4mg/day (1mg every 4-6 hrs) and it takes over an hour to produce results after taking during which time I am standing at my desk at work working on my computer. Long drives, movie theaters, seminars and flights are all things I can't do without loading up on the medication beforehand."
