Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS) Discussion Board

Thank you. I will loook up the "rebel" site as well. I might as well. Who knows, I might just find something right for me. I hope both of you do. Thanks for your interest and for posting to me. I appreciate the thoughtfulness very much.

Thanks to all of you who replied to me. I see that I have some things to look up. I will do that and write more later. Happy New Year to each of you, and thanks for welcoming me back.

I was very active on this site back in the fall, and the more I read from others, the more depressed I became. It seemed that there was no real relief, only temporary relief from Requip, which makes me very sleepy, and I take 4 mgs a day. I guess I stopped reading and learning, thinking that I would...

You just told me what I needed to hear....lots more water in the evening and a lot less caffeine throughout the day. I'm going to give your water idea a serious try. thanks for writing. I'll let you know how it goes...by the way, how long before you noticed a difference?

I know you need sleep, as I have spent many frustrating nights in the same boat as you....all of us here have. I have found that sometimes, not always, but sometimes I can sit in my rocker/recliner and (i know this is going to sound silly) whichever side is bothering me that night, I put my other ll...

i feel terrible for both of you. this is maddening enough as it is. I am really thankful that I don't have this all the time. I am very fearful, however, of ...what's the term? augmentation. My best to you both. Thanks for adding to my post. I am enjoying the input from everyone.

Aiken, I'm new to this and admittedly not very knowledgeable yet, but your post concerned me, and I realize that you wrote that six months ago. I want to know if you're still experiencing this with your eyes. I hope you had that checked out, because your symptoms MIGHT BE lots of things. I'm sure yo...

Why is it that I can drive 100 or 200 miles and not experience any symptoms, but if I'm a passenger, just sitting there is horrible. Isn't that strange?

I like the idea of sharing somehow so we will know when others are on. I tried using the messenger tonight to reply to a post fro Becat, and when I pushed "send", I was told the server was unavailable...very frustrating, or I need some instruction in how to communicate better on line. thanks.

I have tried it also several times with the same results. I would like a dialogue and read how different people answer our questions.

thank you all for replying to my first post. Lynn, to make you feel better, I have been monitoring my blood pressure every day since I stopped taking the Lisinopril, and ....I'll check it now to be sure.....my blood pressure right now is 131/84....maybe slightly elevated but not bad at all. By the w...

Hi. I'm very glad to have found this. I never realized there were such good resources for information and support. No one understands this. I've thought for years that this was psychosomatic, because it only happens when I'm still and thinking about it....dreading it is the better term. My symptoms ...

I typed in RLS on my browser just to see what might pop up, and your site did. I am very grateful for that.
