i think it is real
I very occasionally have had restless legs pre -parkinson from the time I was a kid. It is torturous in a way that is hard to explain. You almost have to get up and walk around in the middle of the night. I didn't have it often enough to think of it as a disease. But i know others who would call it a disease and are on mirapex, requip, even sinemet for it.
I really haven't answered the question; just assumed restless leg was related to pd somehow. I don't get it anymore so is it a precursor to pd (in some people?)
I know how it feels so don't begrudge them having something that relieves it, but wish it wasn't the agonists. Anyone know the side effects of neurontin?
