restless legs syndrome
"I have had RLS since I was 40.  It got progressively worse as I grew older to the point that I could barely function.  I couldn't go out to eat with friends, or a movie, or church because I couldn't sit still that long.  It was affecting my job.  My family doctor had me on Sinimet for 16 years and then my body became resistant to it.  She sent me to a neurologist which proscribed Neupro.  It was life changing for me.  I noticed such a difference within 24 hours.  I felt like I had my life back again.   I do have some side effects from it.  The spot where the patch is on at times drives me crazy because it itches.  It does make me somewhat irritable at times.  Is it worth the side effects?  You betcha!!!!"
