Hence, do not stop it cold turkey. I take 20 mg of Prozac a day. I had the RLS only slightly before, but now it seems to have gotten a lot worse. My libido has suffered also, but not being depressed is much more important to me. I also suffer from anxiety and Prozac has helped me tremendously, but I could use a good night of sleep.
Any help is appreciated.
Restless Leg Syndrome is an unusual syndrome in which patients feel as if their legs are twitching. There is a feeling of worms crawling under the skin and movement is necessary to alleviate the feeling. Unfortunately there is no current explanation for this syndrome and there is no very good treatment available. There are several treatments, which usually means that none of them are very effective. It is more common in renal failure patients, but the overwhelming majority of patients are healthy.
