Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS) Discussion Board

Hi Charlene, Lyndarae, Lynne...and all other names I've forgotten... just wanted to say hello, good to see your posts and hope you all are feeling well. I kind of climbed back in my shell and missed the last few chats. (I do that sometimes when I'm "going through things".) I'm proud of myself...I ac...

Howdy, Mark PLEASE add me to your Honor Roll. As you know, I just recently started a new job and I've been working REALLY long hours (Monday thru Friday only, thank goodness). I haven't visited the boards as frequently because of that. It's currently 11:30 pm my time and as sleepy as I am right now ...

Hi Mark, Well said. I can't imagine what those firefighters must have gone through. And what's up with FEMA's "fake" news brief earlier in the week, where FEMA staffers "acted" as reporters and asked questions meant to highlight how wonderful of a job FEMA is doing regarding the wildfires. WHAT'S UP...

Congrats, Mark! Nice to have a fellow Michiganian helping us along!

Hey Lyndarae! Yes...I know all about the "spider sensation" - or what I like to call "pins and needles"...feels like a million tiny little elves jabbing me. Sometimes I get it when I'm getting dressed; other times it'll just happen unexpectedly in the middle of the day. Drives me crazy. Several mont...

Hi Zach - I haven't known you as long as others but I've read enough of your posts to know you've been through a helluva lot. Glad to hear your RLS is under control. Hang in there...I'll send a prayer your way.

just in case

Wow, Catfish...I don't know what's more interesting...what you shared about the sleep study or the interaction between you and the technician! (To be continued???........) LOL Hope the study results help and things go well for you. Take Care...Jen

Hi Kathy - I argee with you. A little over a year ago my doc gave me Mirapex. It only made me feel a little "loopy" and my legs felt worse. I stopped taking it and won't try it again. Just recently I started taking Tramadol (generic for Ultram)...only when needed and Clonazepam. That's it for me. Ta...

My December, thanks for sharing this information. I'll definitely review this. I haven't had RLS as long as most (a little over a year), but I still wonder everytime I hear folks describe their symptoms. I know they can vary from person to person, but I still wonder. I had an EMG, and they found a p...

Lyndarae, you go, girl! So happy to hear about the apartments. The projects you're taking on have inspired me. I slept relatively well last night, and I'm going to take advantage of the energy I feel this morning and clean out one of the spare rooms in my house...one I'm sorry to say I've allowed to...

Hi Walter, I just did a bunch of "Googling" on these spas...how interesting! I'm willing to try anything once, and will look for a location in my area that might provide use/rental as part of their "spa services". (I can't afford to buy one myself.) From what I read these spas have also provided rel...

Hi Lyndarae, I've been busy the last couple of days...just read about your healing ceremony. HOW BEAUTIFUL. I was overcome with emotion at the thought of this. I just e-mailed you a prayer...hope you get it. (Forgive me in advance if there are any misspellings. It's almost 12:30 a.m. here in Michiga...

Hi Mark, Great idea...I'll join in on this as well. Ironically, after a couple of days of feeling "pretty good", I had a hellish time late Wednesday (10/3) and all day on Thursday (10/4). I try to mark these "bad" days down in my planner anyway, so I'd be glad to participate to see if these episodes...

until she saw
