Welcome to
ErnieB, who has had RLS since birth. It causes intense foot pain in addition the restless leg. He is now retired but it was only ten years ago that he learned that there was medication for this problem but this is not a disease well known by our doctors in this small city.
Your doctor situation is not something that is limited to small cities, it is a problem in large ones as well. Please post a note telling us what you are currently doing to manage your RLS so that we can offer some suggestions on how to proceed and improve your situation.

Welcome to
Deb B, who has had RLS her whole life but was diagnosed 15 years ago. She is 59 years old. She has to sleep alone, is always tired, pills are a drain on the pocketbook and she just hates the creepy feeling.
Please post a note telling us what you are (of have been) taking for your RLS. We have found that there is usually something else to try that either doesn't cost as much or doesn't cause unpleasant side effects.

Welcome to Zotis12, who has had WED/RLS for over 20 years and is currently augmenting and suffering from impulse control disorder.
Zotsi12, tell us your story, ask questions, provide advice; please make yourself at home! From what you have said, it seems almost as if you have resigned yourself to living with augmentation and ICD. (Did I read you wrong?) There are alternatives to the dopamine agonists that you probably should investigate. You can begin here! Welcome.
