I have had CNS/Obstructive sleep apnea since
being diagnosed in 1990 and have used a CPAP
also since that time. My legs bother me especially
when I first try to go to sleep and I have been
taking Sinemet for about 7 months. It helps, but
it certainly isn't the total answer. I sometimes
have to resort to Ambien in order to get to sleep
and then my wife says I thrash all over the bed
and talk alot in my sleep making it so bad she
will move to another bed to sleep. Work with a
sleep specialist and hope for the best.
