Moonlight you are doing all the right things, staying connected to people and to life is most important. You may not feel like a warrior woman right now but you are behaving like one just by facing your daily challenges. You could choose to pull the covers over your head and stay in bed (and sometim...

Well someone fixed the censor because I didn't change the typing in my post above and it posted like this when I first entered it: Wait a minute it's censoring ***** as in s h i r t? and now when you look at my post the first "shirt" without the spaces is not censored. Also in Randy's post T-shirt o...

HF- have you ever charted your RLS symptoms to see if there is a pattern? The reason I ask is because you mentioned that you just got your period. My symptoms are always the worst leading up to my period and for the first couple days of my cycle. After that I can go up to two weeks or more with no R...

Moonlight, Now is the time to be especially good to yourself. I hope that all 14 of the food items you bought at the market are delicious and comforting. You need to treat yourself. Make a list of your favorite things and do some of them. Have your nails done or get a massage. Whatever would make yo...

Happyfeet, like you I remember having RLS as a child, always in both legs. I was told it was "growing pains". I distinctly remember ripping the feet out of a pair of footed pajamas in the middle of the night when I was about 10 years old out of pure frustration. I too was a thin and rather anemic lo...

I use "Restful Legs" only after symptoms present themselves. I have found that I am able to relax and go back to sleep within 10-20 minutes. I do sometimes wake up a few hours later. When this happens I dissolve two more under my tongue and fall back to sleep again within 10-20 minutes. This has hel...

I'm with Mark, have your doc send your pics and your file to the Hand Wrist Specialist for a look see. Does he really need to see you in person? Perhaps he might suggest additional tests that could be performed back home. If after looking at your pictures he thinks surgery is in order by all means t...

I avoid all artificial ingredients as best I can. We don't need artificial sweetners and we don't need that much sugar either. I put fruit in my cereal (dried or fresh) to make it sweeter. With the abundance of fresh fruit availble at every grocery store in the civilized world who needs sugar on eve...

The new move is called the Corkscrew. I thought "At last, some relaxation with this class...a glass of wine, yeah I can handle that." Ruby- you are just going to love this, there are a handful of Yoga Instructors/Studios that are doing "Yoga and Wine" classes. Just Google (or insert your favorite s...

For me this board is a place to learn more about RLS and get to know other people who are dealing with this disorder. It is a public forum, the information posted here is available to anyone with Internet access. It is a forum provided to us by the RLS foundation, it does not belong to those who use...
