The doctors didn't warn me of such a horrible withdrawal when they first administered it. I can't face the people at IP again with the staff staring at you all the time and turning their backs when I have a problem or the med nurses giving me a hard time. I'm ready to give up.

What are you taking? I'm assuming you've tried all of the hypnotics available. What about any of the atypical anti-psychotics? I know a hospital stays suck, but if things are really bad they can change your meds faster in a hospital than at home.

Forgot to ask, are you taking the Mirapex for RLS?
