Geez, Cherie, thanks for that link. I hadn't seen that one! I've not had any side effects while on it. I just don't see the need for two drugs. I usually don't have any problems going off drugs, or haven't in the past.

I know other people who have had problems with drugs like Xanax and Ambien or even Requip, but I've not had any problems with them at all. I took Xanax and Ambien as needed and the Requip didn't work at all. I went back on Klonopin for the RLS.

I have been on Klonopin for the RLS and am taking 1.5 mg which is 3 times the normal dose. That's why I wanted back on the Sinemet because the spasticity is aggravating the RLS. Soma is not doing anything for me. It's not even helping me sleep anymore which it did at first but I might as well be taking nothing for all the good it's doing now. The spasticity was just getting worse.

Now that I am back on the Sinemet, the spasticity seems to be calming back down, at least it's tolerable now, whereas it wasn't 3 weeks ago! As long as I am on the Soma, I can't take anything to help me sleep so I want off this stuff. I am not getting any response from the neuro or his staff and it's beginning to annoy me.
