herbal help with rls

Post by fancyelliott »

I have been using Valerian Root for over a year now and it has made a huge difference in my rls. I take one or two capsules about and hour before bedtime, it not only helps with my rls, but it also helps me to sleep. It is inexpensive and I have not had any side effects from taking it. Give it a try.

I'm pregnant, so I can no longer take Requip, which was working wonderfully. Do you know if this is okay to take during pregnancy? I'm literally about to lose my mind! Thanks!

hi realestatemom and welcome. I would go to the forum Populations as there is info on pregnancies. Never having any children I could not hep you in that area; however before doing anything, I would definitely ask your dr first.

I am so sorry that you are going through this.

I hope that you find the relief that you need.

Please keep us posted on what your dr says and how you are doing.
