want help without medication, any suggestions?
Hi Judy H and welcome. I am glad to hear that the leg machine works for you. One thing we have to all remember is what works for one may not work for another, but thank you for sharing that with us. You never know with this info, you may be able to help someone.
Keep us posted on how you are doing.
Have a good day

Just wanted remind folks who are looking for help without meds to check out the RLS Rebel (rlsrebel.com) for ideas. Good luck to all.

somebody take my keyboard away, it's a good thing ann locked that post, maybe she should just delete it entirely, because it's just gonna tick me off if i stumble across it again, and i am sure a lot of the rest of us.
don't mean to offend ann by going around your lock, but if i didn't say something i would explode
my apoligies

Well, Dee, I'll make you a deal You let it alone, Judy lets it alone, and I'll leave this unlocked It's sort of like kindergarten - we all gotta play nice together!
Thanks for tempering your response here, Dee. I mean that. That gives me hope . And, truly, I do understand how hard it was for you (and everyone else).

Home Medic Massager for 2 min before sleeping.
This works GREAT and I have been doing this for year years. It's all I need. If I have been drinking too much caffine, I get RLS the NEXT night. All you have to do is get a home medic massager (The kind with two heads) and place it just above Each knee cap for about 2-5 min. Works great every time. No Drugs Ever. PASS THE WORD. And happy dreams.
P.S. If you get a DC/AC adapter, you can use it in your car.
Sorry it took me two years to post this. Better late then never.

you asked for non med help....you have recieved a lot of replies.....I think we deserve a reply as to what you have tried and what may have worked.
I specifically would like to know if you tired the stocking/pantyhose treatment. Its very simple to do, is totally non medicinal, and usually gets good results from those that have really tried it. Please give it a shot and report back here with your results....

Have your ferritin levels checked
And then ask your doctor about iron supplements. There's lots of information on this site about ferritin.
