legs, first understand that your post is not egocentric. Just as you have learned from reading what others have done, the experiences you described will help others.

And I love the description of your RLS having a personality of its own. My imagination immediately jumped to a little gremlin with a mischievous sense of humor who is hiding inside all of us just waiting for the opportunity to jump out to remind of his presence.

Think of it as simply taking care of yourself. And the best part? In short order you'll be the one here who is helping others and you'll pay it forward. That's what we all do - we're a tribe that looks after each other and ensures we all get the best possible experience and help. Without you and what you offer, that system doesn't work. Here's looking forward to seeing you in the encouraging chair, helping out someone we haven't yet met :-).
