Post Zyban - ANY DOCTORS MONITORING HERE?

My boyfriend has just purchased zyban, he has not started yet as he was just diagnosed with sleep apnea and restless leg syndrome. He started taking 300 mg of neurontin last night for RLS and brain was racing, couldn't sleep and he was very shaky this a.m. Tonight we will try 100 mg of neutontin. Once we get square around with neurontin he will start zyban. He has to quit smoking as he just found out he has moderately severe emphysema and he also has alpha one antitrypsin deficiency. If there is a doctor in the house, do you feel zyban is right for him. I asked primary doc if zyban and neurontin were OK and he said he never read that it wasn't but didn't know if there had ever been anyone that tested the two together. Any help on this matter would be appreciated, especially since he is taking neurontin to help him sleep and all I read says that zyban keeps you awake. What to do? HELP??? Elaine
