Have been having very painful leg spasams lately and am back in the can't sleep mode again - thank goodness for the internet.
I also have Restless Leg Syndrome and I take Mirapex. Although I take it during dinner time or 6 pm, whichever comes first. It does not help me sleep, it just calms the anxiety in my legs. I take potassium everyday to help with the leg spasms. Sometimes, I just walk around the house and say my prayers until the anxiety/spasms go away. - Daisy144, I feel ya!
