Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS) Discussion Board

I'm going to go off topic again, hope you don't mind. I have questions about this discussion board. Is the owner of this site ever here? Who moderates it?

Feelings in legs: Something seems to be moving within my legs. My foot twitches. Sometimes it twitches up and down, other times side to side. Last night I had both of those, and haven't had that happen before. Last night it didn't last all that long. Creepy crawly feeling - I guess you could describ...

Is Lois the moderator for this site? Or does she own it?

jumpywol and whoever else,

I am unable to vote. I don't know why. Nothing happens when I click yes.

jumpyowl,

Sorry, I didn't realize I could still vote. Sometimes these things are for a certain amount of days. Other times they go on forever. I thought the voting was all over with. I'll go ahead and vote. If I have trouble voting, I'll post it here.

I probably should have read the whole thread then. I'm sorry, but hopefully it will show you how it could go.

jumpyowl, Wow! I could have something else entirely. I just started my own diary of different pains I experience with standing all day long. The last time I had the leg jerking was Sunday. Sunday is my day off. I was very surprise my legs jerked the way they did. Normally I never experience soemthin...

SO BASICALLY I AM LOOKING FOR SUGGESTIONS AS TO WHAT TO INCLUDE IN THE QUESTIONNAIRE!!! Age 50 Sex female When or if you've been diagnosed. No, I haven't been. I think I have a mild case. My legs move on their own for no reason at all. How the diagnosis was made As stated above, legs jerking for no...

I'm wondering if I do have low iron. When I've gone to give blood they won't accept it because there's not enough iron in it. I recently had a blood test so I'll find out the results.

I am guessing I have rls. I don't know what else the leg jerks are.

Thank you, becat and jan. I want to learn about this and had my own theory that is proving to be all wrong. I'll have to check out the ORP thread you mentioned.

This forum is proving to be very informative.

Doesn't just movement of the legs help for anyone?

Thank you, jumpyowl and ronh, for the welcome and replies. You offer good advice. I do have a very mild case of rls. Sometimes during the day, I do have an urge to move my legs since I'm basically in one spot and move very little. I don't know if that's rls or me being bored in one spot. I process a...

Thank you Jan. I don't know if I can explain what my legs go through. A couple of years ago it started. My legs would move involuntarily, for no reason. I was trying to get to sleeep. I figured it was involuntary spasms. My legs felt normal, then a slight funny feeling and then jerk. It was very wei...
