As for me, I have coke, all the time , no real problems with it. give me a Pepsi and I am reallllllly sorry, relllllllllly fast. I c...

Jill's Book

Hi Lynne.
I can't believe I forgot Jill ! I met her and saw her demonstration of her " bag of tricks " and was very impressed by her.
So, Jill, if you still check the board out, I am sorry. :(

Sleep Thief

I forgot something. If you haven't ordered the So. CA. Support Group book," Living with Restless Legs", I highly recommend it too. Elizabeth, "Bill" Tunison tells the story of how the group came to be, and of her search for the answers to RLS/PLMD. I LOL when I read what she had to say about her sea...

Sleep Thief

Hi All. In reading the different posts, I haven't seen anything about the book. " Sleep Thief" by Virgina Wilson . It is 12 yrs. old now, but well worth the money . I think I paid 30.00 for mine, and that was ? 2000.( Amazon.com ) All of us owe Virginia a debt we can never repay. She was the one who...

Something I thought of

Hi All. A long time ago, when I was a member of Jodi Judson's on line support group, someone came up with the idea of writing poems and sayings about rls/plmd. It was a lot of fun, so I went back thru some stuff I kept, and I actually found the one I came up with.' Anyone care to try it? Let's see ...

Amen, mom just picked up Vickie who spent the morning on the couch watching movies. I am going to pl...

Advice

Hi. Your Dr. needs to be INFORMED about rls. While losing weight is good all the way around, rls is vey non-descriminating. It doesn't care if your fat , thin, old, young, pink , green , purple, blue eyes, brown eyes, tall, short, pretty or ugly enough to scare the dead! I am wondering about the Dr....

Silly posting

Hi Cyndi. You're right. I had a terrific time with Vickie and didn't even realize I was doing good. I guess I was in the " I am fine mode", instead of the " thank you Lord mode" for the good day. Your day sounds a lot like mine. I hate it when I plan on sititng down and my legs say, " Think again ho...
