I'm on Requip only and was thinking 'bout asking the doc to add sinemet.>> I made the transition from Requip only, to Sinemet only, and have not regretted it. For one thing, the sleep attacks prevented me from driving four times a day. Since I'm now taking only Sinemet (l/2 tab 25/l00 QID) I have no restless legs anymore, and the antsy restlessness I usually experienced in a movie, or in church, has also disappeared!!! I HOPE this is not temporary, but a permanent improvement in my quality of life. There has been a nagging problem in a trapezius muscle on the left shoulder, which I suspected was dystonia, but after several consults, PT, and a TENS unit, may turn out to have been not dystonia after all. Of course, no one is diagnosing it. As long as it goes away, I don't care what it's called! Clare Wilson
