Dear Doc, I am an Indian Classical Dancer, age 54 years. Since last 2 years I feel restlessness in my legs while sitting in the flight or as I retire on bed. As it was getting impossible to sleep, I consulted Doctor and is given Pramipex 0.125 since 6 months but still I experience a feeling of numbness and restlessness though not as intense as previously. Please advice.

Pl get a venous doppler for your legs to check for blood flow. You may also start vit E supplements.

Hi , I am Dr Akshay from Fortis Hospital, New Delhi. Restlessness and generalised tiredness could be due to multiple reasons. Pramipex is a medicine not usually prescribed by Orthopaedic surgeons so i cannot make a comment on that. I would want you to rule out : - Low haemoglobin - Low vitamin D levels - Hypothyroidism etc as important causes. Kindly let me know about these investigations so that we can prescibe you appropriate medicines. Thanks & Regards Dr Akshay Ph No : 9891359607 Email : akshaysaxena2004@yahoo.co.in
