Restless Legs Syndrome Support Group
Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS) may be described as uncontrollable urges to move the limbs in order to stop uncomfortable, painful or odd sensations in the body, most commonly in the legs. Often sufferers think they are the only ones to be afflicted by this peculiar condition and are relieved when they find out that many others also suffer from it.
I just need to whine & vent, so just delete this.
I am SO TIRED of this RLS. I even tried to take a cat nap yesterday, but oh no, now why would I think that would be possible???
Why can't they invent some sort of shot to inject right into the muscles that would relax them? Men on the moon, flu shots.......
Ok, done venting.
Happy Turkey Day to all.

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
Stress plays a huge part in how severe your RLS may be. So, don't keep those feelings inside. If you can't talk to anyone where you live, talk to us, please.....
Are you on medication? What do you do for your RLS? I'm not advocating medication (in particular). I take meds, but many people manage RLS without them. However, just because you decide to take meds (or are already taking them), it does not mean you are weak in anyway. As I said, RLS is bad and can drive anyone totally crazy.
Let us know how you are, please.

No, I am not really taking any meds. I have a medicine that is OTC only & I think it is basically a sleeping pill, lol. I only take 1/2 of one & most nights it helps.
A good ole hot bath helps mostly.
