Biography

A car accident resulted in a coma and a bleed in my basal ganglia. I was told I could expect “movement disorders”. When I started to get symptoms, they were minor and only in the evening and I was diagnosed with Restless Leg Syndrome. 20 years later, the symptoms are more pronounced and if a am not medicated with a dopamine-based drug (Mirapex, Neupro) or an opioid, I do not sleep.
