I am new to this site, so In hope I am doing this right. My PLM started when I was in my early 40's, I am 73 now. A couple of years later RLS started and I have been on Mirapex since then. The only thing different that has helped are painkillers, I found this out when I had surgery. I could not work and stay on painkillers so I have been taking Mirapex forever and I have to be careful with it. If I take it to late at night and I be extremely sleepy the next morning. That is not a problem unless I have to drive somewhere. The odd thing about all of this is when I am a passenger in the car my RSL & PLM will start and I will have to take a mirapex, but when I am driving I don't have RLS or PLM.
