Hey sleep disorder friends, I need advice and I’m looking for other folks’ experience. Pls boost? #SpoonieChat #SleepDisorder
I have a REM movement disorder and wake up a lot in the middle of the night. Gabapentin helped a lot, but also made me dumber so I had to discontinue.
Doctor recommended looking into Requip (ropinirole). Looks like it’s a dopamine agonist and often works for a short while and then makes the problem worse?
