Deaar Bud,

My husband and I enjoyed reading you introduction.  My husband, Staley,64,
has PD.But I have two kinds of arthritis, Rheumatoid and Ankylosing
Spondylitis and my doctor gave me Elavil (orAmitriptyline-generic) to help me
go to sleep at night when I'm in pain.  Well, I was having "restless legs"
every night and it nearly drove me CRAZY!  Then it dawned on me, if I didn't
take it ar forgot to take it, I didn' thave "restless legs."   I was
wondering since Elavil is given for PD, if in fact you were taking it?  I
have found that if I take it when I am getting in bed and lay down flat, they
don't bother me.  Hope this will help if you take Elavil.
Good luck!
