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.
could RLS be affected by hot and cold, like lets say your asleep and it too you have too many blankets on.

I haven'tnoticed that it makes a difference either way. I've tried to figure out why it's worse sometimes than others, all I've really be able to connect it with is that stress and/or fatique make it worse. (at least in my case)

With rls alot of people have been affected by the cold or hot. Myself a few things can really trigger my rls like stress and drinking anything with caffeine late at night. I hope that you are doing better and have a nice evening.

last night i put an electric blanket on my bed to see if it would make a difference. my legs and feet are always so cold. well, its did not make any difference. i still had the problems with my legs. going to leave it on my bed though because i am always so cold.

Ive noticed that if my blankets are to hot or the air I am in is too hot then the RLS comes .

I've never noticed hot or cold worsen my rls. Mine bothers me every time I sit now. Caffine can make it worse, being tired makes it worce and the more I relax the worce it gets, and being stressed can to. That's all I have noticed hope this helps

I know that when I get cold my RLS gets worse. Winter sucks.

Nothing seems to trigger it for me either.. it just happens. and not ALL the time, just some times and mostly at night when i go to bed.Just the horrible feeling of having to keep moving my legs.

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...
