Actually, I do have RLS, and this has been treated just fine with Klonopin for quite some time now. Perhaps the Mirapex does have a synergistic effect in this area, but I tend to believe it's the activation of the dopamine reward system (i.e., lack of need for morning coffee or cigarette) that is at work here. Just my theory though. :-)
