Thanks for the Requip info. it's now my biggest W/D problem.

Thanks for all of your information it really helps. I'm 4 hours short of 6 days and have to admit this has been the worst day. I know it's becuase of no sleep. I feel like I'm going crazy today and can barely function. I dread the night. Did the Requip help you sleep or did you try something else. Help, please!
