My wife has had it for a couple years now.
Why do I have to press 1, for English?

Mine got really bad when I was weaning myself off of opioids for back pain. I still get it once in a great while and I swear it is all the meds the VA has me on. Exercise and good diet seem to do me the most good!

I have noticed that when I have an episode of restless leg is the same time I'm dreaming of walking or running (trying to run) I can never seem to be able to run in my dreams. I keep trying and trying but I never can. I think I am trying so hard in my dream that my legs start to move around....
I have since been able to recognize that I am dreaming (during my dream) and am able to wake myself up most times......

as a vitamin try Niacin in the higher dose range.
or go big and have your doc. write to a compounding pharmacy for NAD injectable and
Gabapentin 5%/Ketoprofen 5%/lidocaine%5 transdermal cream.
restless leg and bladder control have some of the same neurological conditions. not enough energy to react to the inhibitory messages sent via CNS
NAD is a major necessity in mitochondria for energy production
the cream will only effect locally, no liver by pass and no central nervous system

.5 mg clonansepam (sp) seems to help me.
Grammar is important.

Exercise helps. Try kickin' some liberal ass now and then.
I am..........disturbed.

I had [have] it, it feels like tickling and pinpricking and gets worse when I try to get to sleep. I started on hormone replacement therapy for other problems[63 yo female] and along with these improving, the RLS went away. When it is time for another shot of HRT, I always know because the RLS comes back. I've never heard of this as a therapy, but it works for me--just my two cents.

Forgot to add
RL syndrome is caused by low dopamine. Low dose naltrexone (1-6mg range) works well for the pain.
