Please share your experiences, successes, and failures in using non-drug therapies for RLS/WED (methods of relief that don't involve swallowing or injecting anything), including compression, heat, light, stretches, acupuncture, etc. Also under this heading, medical interventions that don't involve the administration of a medicine to the body (eg. varicose-vein operations, deep-brain stimulation).

My Dr. gave me quinine and it didn't seem to help. I have RLS right now and it's driving me crazy. Now I am having circulation problems in the foot of th RLS leg. Is there a connection?
Patients with RLS do not necessarily have a blood circulation problem in the limbs as far as I know. Yours could be a separate affliction. Are you borderline diabetic or have insulin resistance?
