    Are they freak'n kidding? They have a drug for 'Restless Legs'??

    These rx companies have lost their marbles. What's next? 'Are you a dumb a**? They have a name for it: 'Dumb A** Syndrome'. Speak to your Doctor....'

    It's an actual disorder. If you do not move your leg you get intense pain, while if you do move your leg you cannot sleep at night.

    Intense pain? What's the cause?

    Guess you learn something new everyday. Even at my advanced age I'd never heard of it.

    Cohen is right, those RX companies are getting ridiculous. I saw that commercial several months ago and it advised you to contact your doctor or GlaxoSmithKline.

    Basically, what will happen is they will sell you a drug that will suppress the symptoms (not cure) of fatigue leg syndrome that will also cause about a dozen or so side-effects which will lead you to.......


    Take more of their drugs.

    Nothing but a huge f'n scam. :mad:

    Viagra and Vivarin are a lethal combination, my man. ;) Stop taking the Vivarin immediately.

    I want that drug that allows you to run through the field or beach in slow motion. I also want that drug that will allow you to give old ladies that sexy but oh so coy smile.

    David Carr needs that drug that allows you to throw a football through a tire swing...maybe he'll be able to hit an open receiver once in a while...

    My wife has restless leg syndrome....it is a real disease. She will not get any sleep unless she takes Ambien to relax the restless leg and make her fall asleep.

    It might be viral, it might be bacterial, it might be genetic.
