Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS) Discussion Board

You arrived at a wonderful place, Good for you! Sending many postive thoughts of energy on your journey. Discovering RLS at 52 has certainly helped my mental stability! Hopefully the information I gather will help my daughter who is in her 20s. Hazel

back to the top... Hugs all around... Hazey

Donna, Glad you are finding continued relief using the Requip. That is great. Certainly with all that rain you ladies have seen at least one rainbow???? Glad to know that I am not the only one that the high temps and humidity seems to affect adversely.

Dear Elizabeth,

Sending you many positive thoughts on your journey. Anne and Donna are great sources of information and support! Keep us posted on your progress. Hazel

Kendra and Hello Jan, Most recent visit to one doctor who suggested that I have fibro in connection with the rls. I all ready have RA which primarily affects my fingers. Someday they may be able to connect all the dots... but for now it is the women and men who have gone before us that seem to offer...

Dear Laurie, I liked Linda Goodman's moon signs... for numerology. Ahhhh anything to keep the mind focused! Going to ask hubby for lap top for Christmas then I can just strap it on and surf while I pace. As for heavenly, the stormy skies while spectacular cloud formations and lightening with thunder...

Today is a good day because... there is always the RLS site to ponder when one is in need of focus. It was either that or do the dishes *BIG GRIN*

Dear LadyFox, On a lighter thought, Mercury and Mars are in retrograde and have been for over a month, will finally go forward on the 22nd. During a retrograde communication becomes miscommunication, plans, everything etc has a tendancy go awrye, mistakes happen more frequently, or things have to be...

The information on this website and from these ladies is your best line of defense. BEFORE going into the Dr PLEASE print out the DRUGS TO AVOID and check it against any drug your dr might recommend. Foolish woman I r - I went in gave the Mayo paper and I truly believe the Dr only heard I wasn't sle...

Lauriem, I am so happy for you. Any time we can experience some sense of normalcy certainly helps! I'll be keeping you in my thoughts and prayers that you continue to be symptom free! Hazel

I'll check these sites out. My diabetes has been controlled with diet and exercise, so I don't think it is the problem. Talked with a co worker who has severe neuropathy and he told me the neurologist I will be seeing is the one who diagnosed his neuropathy. We had a discussion on tests and such. If...

Dear Aiken,

If it wasn't so frightening, I'd say Elavil certainly could be a test for RLS! In my case it took only one pill to set the pain and reflexes off the charts.

Glad you are doing better. That is really good news. Sending you many positive thoughts that it continues... Hazel

Is anyone with neuropathy being treated for RLS? Since I am experiencing side effects from the Requip, it occured to me that mine might possibly be related to my diabetes. Curious as to what tests I should ask about in connection to this type of RLS. Thanks, rowing like crazy see all that hope churn...

Well I will have to look for that Tx song bird and see how she is doing. The reprieve was temporary. Took .25 saturday night, had creepy crawlies... so sunday night took .50 and was up and down all night... not that I had creepie crawlies, my head felt like it was going to explode and my heart would...

Dear Afl, This website has been a god send for me, and it is those like Ann that keep me searching for the health care I need. I have an appt with two new doctors. Just recently my husband told me he thought I had RLS after hearing a radio program on it. I went to my most recent physician and she pr...
