Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS) Discussion Board

Well, I'm back from vacation, but have yet to schedule the Nerve Conduction Study. My mom has been in and out of the hospital since I returned. She has NASH (which is a non-alcoholic form of cirrhosis of the liver) and has been having some major problems. I also have a son with Tourette Syndrome/ADD...

As per their web-site they have an office in Mountlake Terrace, WA 98043 nad they also have toll free US number. Then why do they ship it from or make you ship it to (for refund) UK ? Gunabcd, The company does not ship from the UK. They ship from the US, and don't charge shipping at all if you orde...

Well, I saw my doctor yesterday, and he's convinced me that this is worth a shot. Even though he's 99% sure it is just RLS, he said there is a chance I could have some underlaying nerve damage that is causing the problem. Anyway, I've decided to quit being a chickensh*t and have it done. However, I'...

I have an appointment tomorrow to discuss it with him. So far I've just spoken to his nurse about it, so I'm hoping he'll have some more information for me. I'm still trying to figure out how much he knows about RLS.

My understanding is that he just wants to make sure there is nothing else that could be causing the RLS symptoms. I just switched to this doctor a few months ago, because I wanted to try some alternative remedies, and the last doctor just wanted to keep giving me more meds. From what this new one ha...

My doctor has told me that he'd like me to have a Nerve Conduction Study, but I'm wondering what the merits are of having one. I'm having no other problems besides the RLS, and from what I've read, this study is not the most pleasant thing to go through. Has anyone else had one done? Was it worth it...

Ray, I'm sorry, but I don't ever recall saying that I would stop with the oil posts. I did agree to call a truce on our argument about it, but never agreed to stop posting all together. Why should I??? I don't recall reading in the posting rules where it stated that you were permitted to post about ...

Aiken, The only other glowing testimonials were posted, ad nauseum, in multiple threads, by people who joined the day they started posting them, and who never posted about anything else. That, along with their identical claims of stopping requip and klonopin the day they started using the oil, was j...

The RLS doc I went to this week switched me from Requip to Mirapex. I tried the RLS oil and it didn't work for me. Hydrocodeine works but I don't like the side effects of that either. We'll see how the Mirapex works. Becky, I'm just curious how long you tried using the oil for? It worked for me the...

Over-zealousness in any format can lead to misunderstandings. I see quite a few overzealous postings on the wonderful effects of marijuana, yet I don't see anyone accusing those people of being drug dealers. I joined this board because I was elated that I finally found something that worked for me ...

Slee,

Have you tried hydroxyzine? I use it for severe itching that I get due to allergies, and I haven't noticed it affecting my rls in anyway. I believe it's actually a nerve medication, but I take a very low dose of it (5mg) and it's enough to stop the itching without making me drowsy.

It sounds as though this comment is geared towards me, and I really take offense to that. I am NOT working for the company! I have NEVER pm'd someone who hadn't sent me a private message FIRST asking me for more information about the oil. Yes, I gave anyone interested in ordering a discount code, bu...

Betty, I don't believe it's possible to use the oil incorrectly. You may just be one of the people it doesn't work for. As it's been pointed out many times in this forum, there doesn't seem to be anything out there that works for all of us. Hopefully someday there will be, but in the meantime it see...

Aiken, First off, I never claimed that I stopped the Klonipin and Requip without any issues. I had major issues falling asleep, even though the oil stopped my RLS symptoms. To me, that's a sure sign that I was addicted to the medication. As far as the discount code goes, both you and Ray are wrong. ...
