Headaches?

Does anybody get mild headaches toward the end of the day pretty consistently? I just wondered if this went along with RLS per chance.

Thanks

I don't, but my first question would be, do you take daily meds for your RLS? That could cause predictable headaches.

I don't as a rule. But, did have some regularly with some medications.

Ditto for me. Caffeine also caused regular headaches for me in the past.

Only if I'm not wearing my glasses. I'm just a tiny bit farsighted, so I really don't need to wear them to see, but the headaches can get really bad if I don't wear them. How are your eyes?

I'm not on RLS meds, but am on antidepressants. I only wear glasses to drive. I have headaches typically starting at 4 p.m. I certainly feel at my lowest that time of day as well. Just a theory, was wondering if it was connected to RLS as I don't show symptoms for that until later in the evening.

hello ravenwood, yeah I get mild headaches very often and they are usually about that time of day. They go away if I rest for a while, but I have been having them for a long time. I guess I am almost use to it now. I do take meds for rls, don't know if this has anything to do with them or not. I just chaulk it up to a long day~~~~Lyndarae

I used to always have daily severe headaches and sometimes migraine. But not for many years now. Occasionally get spells of mild headachey days, not quite bad enough for a pain killer.

Make sure you are not dehydrated.

good luck
