Guest guest Posted March 19, 2006 Report Share Posted March 19, 2006 I have Restless Leg Syndrome. The leg jerking sounds like that, but I don't have it with my arms. With me, it isn't exactly a pain, but it is, if that makes any sense. It is so hard to discribe. But you can not be still, and it does keep you awake. And it usually hits at bedtime, or when you just try to relax. I take Requip for this as well as Ambien SR for sleep.

Guest guest Posted March 19, 2006 Report Share Posted March 19, 2006 Deborah- I also have Myoclonus. I tried klonopine The effects wore off in a few months. Then I tried klonopin and 600mg of neurontin. The effects of those meds wore off in a month. What do you do for the Myoclonus?. I hate the myoclonus. It jerks me awake. It is like someone shaking you every few minutes all night long. I also tried requip. It didn't work at all. I slept four hours tonight. I am irritable. I just want to sleep.
