Been taking the same meds and dose for over 10 years.1 pill at night. It called ropinirole. I going to ask my pcp about a new med, or higher dose of this med. I let you know what happens. Have a Blessed night.πŸ™πŸ™

It could be that. Have they upped the dose? How often do you take it? You could ask them what would help. Keep me updated pls.

@A MyLupusTeam Member, I have restless leg and neuropathy, I feel your pain. What type of medication are you on. Many people are finding some relief with Gabapentin and Ropinirole.
