Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS) Discussion Board

Where can I find the 10 questions questionnaire with the scale of 1-4?

Can someone give me a link to the rls questionnaire mention by Rangerfan51

Please let me know. Is'nt there a concept of super-alertness with RLS, could that be that? Also which DA are you using?

Did you always need 3-4 hours of sleep a night or is it due to RLS that your sleep time was reduced?

So how do people with3-4 hours of sleep manage the headaches?

Hi,

I get headaches at the base of my scull and am not sure if it is due to lack of sleep or due to dry eyes. Has anyone else experienced this
side effect of RLS?.

I'm on zyprexa and on remeron (strong anti-depressant).

I'm on Horizant right now (gabapentin) and it controls the symptoms, but I do not get enough sleep, so I do not know if it is
the right medication for me.

Nothing changed in my lifestyle, meds or health wise, no OTC meds, nor drop in iron levels, no injury. I do not eat after 5-6 pm, so I do not
see what could cause this agrevation of rls.

Also I had no changes in meds, health or lifestyle, so the severity of the symptoms caught me off guard.

Thank you for replying Steve. Michael Haltman does not live in NYC anymore (no idea where he is). I felt very unsettled by the fact
that I got such severe symptoms right away. Hope that meds will work for me too.

My mother believes that if I stop those meds, the rls will go away. Tried telling her that once you got rls, it stays with you...

I'm bipolar so I'm on a lot of meds that cause or worsen rls. I took iron and it caused major constipation, so my neurologist had me stop the iron intake. I'm on Horizant and it seems to help with the symptoms and a bit with sleep. I take 900 mg usually, and if I can not fall asleep I take 1200 mg. ...

HI, I've had rls for 2 months only and am having trunk movements. I read that the movements start in the legs and slowly progress to the other parts of the body over years. Is it normal to have the symptoms go to the trunk at the beginning of the rls. Also I'm in NYC, is there a support group in the...
