For Periodic Limb Movement Disorder "I am a 73-year-old male. I have suffered from periodic leg movement most of my life. Lately, it has been getting worse to the point that it could take me hours to fall asleep. In addition to that, I have been having nightmares in which I try to protect myself from some threat. My defense was to punch my wife on the arm. I have also experienced sleepwalking. I had been taking to sleeping in the spare bedroom so that my wife could get some sleep. This was not a solution that suited either one of us. When I began taking Requip, I experienced relief from the very first night. I now routinely sleep the whole night through without nightmares or restless legs/periodic limb movement."

For Restless Legs Syndrome "Requip was effective, and I thought that I couldn't live without it. However, after about 10 years of increasingly disturbing nightmares, one dangerously extreme nightmare made me realize that something was very wrong. After stopping the Requip, problem solved. Now I take one Aleve one hour before bedtime, and most nights sleep okay. I have heard that some doctors believe that RLS is actually a spinal disc problem, and since I do have a bulge in a lower back disc, this could be my problem."
