Okay, I was diagnosed with restless leg during a sleep study and I thought the doctor made it up. That’s what the leg electrodes are. Oh, that and no one will sleep with me including my husband of 20 years (though is it the CPAP, the insulin pump, Dexcom OR the fact that I sleep totally different hours than he does).
“Often disregarded as a fake illness.”
I even went on Mirapex, even though the pharmacy inserts freaked me out since it said it was a Parkinson’s drug. Funny, she just wrote how computer generated pharmacy notes freak out patients too ….
I didn’t believe until I went on Requip — and fortunately neither has made me gamble though I wonder about my husband….
Since I’ve been on Requip, I do sleep better, when my dog isn’t sleeping in jail.
Oh, and I almost forgot — I was listening to Dr Dean Udell (sp), and he told some idiot woman than her mother-in-law’s restless leg was all her mother-in-law’s head.
