Renee ( abt apnea) .....do you

think since I have the RLS too that it could be related to sleep apnea ? Because I was even on requip for a while, which worked, but made me vomit in the middle of the night a lot. So along with that came chronic leg pain they can't diagnose. In have been on pain meds since last June and have had 3 epidurals since then for them . The leg pain never went away but most of the RLS did, so I have been off of Requip for a couple months. I bet there is a connection ?? Lack of oxygen and so on ?

I know that you addressed this to Renee, but I just wanted to send (((HUGS))) to you and am hoping that you can get some relief to your RLS soon. Nothing is worse than not being able to sleep properly (unless you are a doctor and they are used to it!!!). Chris

Yes, it could be, they said they did not want to give me medicine for RLS unless they saw the CPAP did not ease in the symptoms and it only would wake me up once an hour and just slightly. I know the lack of oxygen brought on the fibromyalga I have, so it must all be connected somehow. I hope that helps, and talk to your Dr. about it so they can get you fixed up. I hope you are feeling better soon.
