Many nights it takes 3 different walks or rides to calm the vicious disorder. Someone recommended I try Sedorum, so I ordered it from Amazon and started taking 4 pills a day... For the first time in 25 years I went to bed and NO RLS. I have even weaned down to 2 pills a day and still NO RLS. I still get RLS during the day when I sit for 30 minutes or so... but I can live with that because 1. I am retired and don't have to sit behind a desk and 2. I am awake and can move around at will. This may not work for you but I have to say it so far is the magic bullet I have been seeking for years. Sedorum contains the following ingredients: Folic Acid, Vitamin B12, Calcium Gluconate, Iron, Magnesium Oxide, Valerian Extract, Lemon Balm Extract, GABA Powder, Glycine, Gelatin, Rice Powder, and Magnesium Stearate. I PRAY THIS RELIEF CONTINUES AND HOPE THAT SOMEONE ELSE WHO SUFFERS FROM THIS DISORDER CAN GET RELIEF AS WELL
I have suffered from RLS since my early twenties forty five yers ago. Some one who hasn't suffered from this affliction or watched a loved one with it will not appreciate the passion in your first sentence.

The only medication that ever worked completelt and effectively for me was an OTC product called "Q-Vel" which the FDA imperiously pulled from the market because of some people abusing the main ingredient, quinine. I have tried and am on a generic Requip (Ropinirole) and to try to sleep I have to greatly exceed the dosage allowed, and then it's still touch and go. The magical Ivory Soap bar application worked like a gem for me for about two or three nights, and my bathroom was filling up with yet to be used soap bars!

I do not like using prescription sleep aids, but some nights that is all that stands between me and needed rest. The next day, I am in a hang over like fog.

Whether this Sedorum works for me or not, I thank you sincerely for sharing this information and your experience with fellow sufferers. God bless you.
