Anyway,
I printed out the Mayo Clinic Algorithm, and gave it to him along with the booklet for physcians that the RLS Foundation sent me when I became a member. I wondered how he would react. He gladly accepted it and said he would read it. He sat and looked through it briefly. He also gave me sample of the Mirapex, which I was glad to get because it is so expensive.
He is young, only in practice a year. He admitted to me that I probably knew more about RLS than he did. But when I thought about what he said, I thought, well he is honest. And it seems he is willing to learn more. So it was a good visit.
Just thought I would let you all know. Don't hesitate to take this material to your doctor. Even though they don't know alot, at least now they know such a condion exists.
