Their is a RLS DR? I just saw my primary doc and he prescribed something.( I just had to make sure my other dr said they would mesh).

I have to pick up my medication at the primdoc tommorow because I just got home too late to pick up. I don't know what it is going to be but I am really glad to be started a med to deal with this and have people stop looking annoyed with me when my leg or legs start doing their jig.

Did you have to get a refferal from your primary ? Or did you seek the RLS specialist yourself? I would love to hear how it goes and what they reccomend.

The RLS dr. insisted I do a sleep study which I did last night. It was not a pleasant experience as trying to sleep wired up like the bionic woman made it extremely difficult to sleep. And of course, my legs were fine!! Go figure?!?!? Anyway, I will get the results in about a week.

The RLS dr. was recommended by my primary care dr. And am interested in what med. your dr. gave you.

The results should be interesting ... I will keep you informed.

Grsmmie. do you know what the RLS doctor's official title is like cardiologist, neurologist, etc? I really want to try to find a doctor who specializes in RLS too because my RLS is so painful and 24/7. Thanks.

Gosh, I have no idea but when she calls this week with my results, I will ask her.

shadeseeker, I just found this website and thought you might like to look it over. It seems that the dr. mentioned is a neurologist. I found lots of really good info.
