@suscros68 - have your RLS symptoms become worse as the years progress? Mine have. . . and I sincerely hope they've reached a plateau by now. I've had symptoms beginning with slightly aggravating and occasional to nightly and much more intense. I used to take Requip, but it stopped working and I had to start increasing to larger doses which then had side effects that made it difficult to function the next day. Now, I'm taking Neupro, a transdermal patch that is 'in the same family' as Requip, and so far I'm up to 3 mg and that dosage seems to work for me. I'm sensitive to many medications as well, and I was told by a fibromyalgia doctor at Mayo that it is common for people with fibro to have many sensitivities. I only mention fibro in case you might have that diagnosis or condition also.
