restless legs syndrome
"I'm writing from the UK!  The main difference is that all our medication is free for over 65s and some others.  I've been on Co-coda of (apologies, iPad won't let me spell this correctly), Tramadol and Gabapentin.  My restlessness has been getting worse and worse for years and a couple of weeks ago I kicked a hole in my bed sheet during the night.  So, a few days ago, I saw my GP and he stopped the Tramadol (I'd been tolerating it well) and last night I took my first Mirapex.  Oh what a horrible experience!  I felt dreadfully ill during the night and when I got up this morning I felt as if I had flu.  I was dizzy, sneezy and in a cold sweat.  Now I'm not sure whether to continue - maybe the side effects will settle."
