ya know.....if Neurontin works for Restless Legs-they need to make it an on-label use for that-I think. Don't you? RLS is annoying and very maddening. I'm glad it works for you because I need to talk to my doctor about getting some help for mine. I lay in bed at night-and this is after I take my night meds-I just move my legs CONSTANTLY-FAST like I'm one ancy girl!!!! Just ancy-anxious and like I could run a race-not so much anxious just ancy like I have to move my legs-I don't know any other way to describe it It's really getting annoying.
Any suggestions out there? :(Thanks,Gal

Some people were hurt by taking Neurontin instead of something else (but since our meds don't work for everyone, doctors should be monitoring what is working and what isn't. Blaming Neurontin for a suicide attempt seems inappropriate. Should I have blamed Parnate for my last injury attempt?)
