Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS) Discussion Board

I have often thought about Brandy and alot of the others that were on the board.

Really do miss them and hope that they come back even to say hi and let us know how they are doing.

Hi Bob and welcome to this site. I am sorry to hear about your rls but am glad that you found us. This is the correct forum to be for New to RLS. Please go to the sticky post on thus forum that says "Managing RLS". There is alot of good information for you to read. Also there is an excelle...

Hi Lynne
Thanks for the nice welcome back and yes I have more energy. Having that break was nice and gave me some time for myself which I dearly needed.

So I now am back ready to chat with our members and also new ones.

Thanks again

Hi everyone just wanted to let you know that I am back hosting the Chat room. I know tomorrow is a holiday (Labor Day) so do not know if anyone will be there.

I will be on at 6pm Az. time and hope to see everyone.

Please do keep us posted as I am concerned about you not getting enough sleep. 2-2-1/2 hrs is not good. Have you mentioned this to your dr?

Please let us know what she says all about the test results and if she is going to do anything for your rls.

Just being concerned.

Susan I am glad that I did and you are more then welcome. How are you doing? Please take care of yourself.

I have to second that one Lynne. I think that is just awesome.

He is also very fortunate and he will definitely agree to this one that you are always there by his side helping out all of the time.

Hi Momo please never apologize for venting. We are here for you and do not mind listening. I am glad that your dr is taking b/w for your iron, sugar etc. Is she taking the b/w for just iron or iron deficiency as that does make a difference? Please keep us posted on what the results and that you get ...

Just wanted everyone to know that I am back hosting the chat room. I did this last Monday and had three (3) including one newbie. It went well; however was not able to be on too long as we had a bad storm and was hoping that we would not lose our electricity, which we did not. However it was great g...

Hi Yellman and welcome to this site. On the forum you are now on New to RLS look at the sticky post "Managing RLS" as there is a fountain of information and may answer some of your questions. There two other good sites to read www.rlshelp.org and www.wemove.org These are really worth readi...

So in that regard, yes I agree with you, they have RLS but they don't HAVE RLS. Don't really know where this is going except it was brought home to me once again, the need for the Foundation, this Board and any help that can be passed along. The message "You are not alone" needs to be sha...

Hey Tazzer it is good to hear from you. Let me know how you do with your foot surgery.

Believe me you have been missed.

I am glad that you have a call into your pharmacist and nurse as well. I take mirapex and at times it helps and at other times it does not. I take the lowest dosage there is .125mg and for the past few nights I have the symptoms even when I have taken the meds a few hours before the onset of rls. I ...

Charlene-- I've met a lot of people who have, or for a time had, RLS. I think the 10% statistic is a very low estimate of the real chunk of the population that's experienced RLS. However, very few of these people have had experiences with RLS that were more than simply annoying. Most have it seldom...

I have never taken Neurontin so cannot help in that area. However, I would talk to your dr and see if he can adjust it or try some other meds. I am not a dr nor have any medical background but can relate to what you are going through. I hope that you are able to find what works for you. Please keep ...
