Mirapex - for Restless Leg Syndrome or "RLS"

Mirapex is a prescription medication used to treat people with "Restless Leg Syndrome", a somewhat controversial diagnosis. For example from the Mirapex corporate website we are told to look for the following symptoms, answering yes to all of these:

Do you feel a strong desire to move your legs from time to time, often when they make you uncomfortable?
Do those sensations in your legs occur or get stronger when you are inactive?
Does moving around or stretching help ease those uncomfortable sensations in your legs?
Do those uncomfortable sensations feel their worst at night?

Well, maybe I've got it but I'm pretty sure many people have this type of restlessness "from time to time". I hope doctors prescribe a few hours of walking before drugging people.
