Restless legs..and how you got them

[samhass]

At a neighborhood party, a lady was telling me about a home remedy for restless leg syndrome. It sounded almost comical. Well, at 3 AM my legs were getting crazy on me. I took her advise and within minutes my legs were calm. I was amazed. What was it? Believe it or not, you take a bar of Irish Spring and place it in the sheet by your calves. I wrapped mine in a guest towel one layer thick. Was it the power of suggestion? Who knows. I was just so grateful that it worked. At last sleep found me.

I don't know how I got them or why. Do you?

[samhass]

Uh oh. This ended up in the fem forum. Don't men get restless leg syndrome as well?

[Just Susan]

Strange things can happen...but Sammie, was your advisor wearing a headdress of any kind??? ;)

I have one for you...legs cramping? Bite your lower lip. Like acupuncture it relieves the cramp.

[samhass]

No headdress. In fact she is an elegant, beautiful lady.

[nONIE]

There may actually be some validity to the Irish Spring cureall for restless leg syndrom,

Irish Spring is the only soap that uhumm, lets say has some awful irritating effects on certain parts of my body. I wonder what is in that soap to cause such dramatic effects both good and bad? :dontknow:

[samhass]

Sorry to hear that, Nonie. LOL
As an aside, another neighbor gave me another tip that I tried for the first time this AM.
Use baking soda as an exfoliant. I tried it and my skin feels wonderful. Bright told me about using it in my shampoo and I like that, too.

[Village Kid 2]

You gals are just full of good information this morning.

Irish Spring - didn't they used to advertise that as "made for a man, but I like it too" cooed a woman. Hmmmm, does make you wonder what the active ingredient is. lol

[samhass]

I use Irish Spring. I like the clean smell it leaves on your skin.

[chelsea24]

I have to try Irish Spring. My legs go dancing around the room at night without me! :o It's a very annoying thing, and it keeps my cats hopping! My legs are so restless, I tell them to get up and read a book! But do they listen? Nooooo! Vetman could sleep through a hurricane. I'll give it a try. :bigthumbsup:

It's called a "counter irritant." Removing the concentration on one pain to another pain, thus reducing the first pain.

Do you suppose that a second husband could be called a counter irritant? Ohhh no no, oops...sorry. Bad analogy, huh? :dontknow:

[samhass]

LOL, Barb, you've got your funny on today!
The soap did not irritate me as I had it wrapped in a towel. I also put it between my calves...not my thighs ;). Calves, Nonie, not thighs or higher! 1rnfl 1rnfl 1rnfl 1rnfl

You women are the best. You always bring a smile to my face.

[Barefoot]

When I read the heading of a thread, sometimes I have a fleeting impression that it might actually be a serious topic. ;D

Then Nonie highjacks it with her sexual implications, Chels adds her restless legs getting up and reading a book, and Barb offers insight on a husband being useful as a counter irritant.

You go girls! I think TOTV is keeping us all young! 1rnfl

[nONIE]

Hey Bare, I wasant being sexual really! It just hurt like hail!!!! thats all, just a very irratating soap to my delicate soft sensual skin, thats all!

But if it works for crazy legs, go for it! :bigthumbsup:

[samhass]

Stop it, Nonie. You're starting to turn me on. 1rnfl 1rnfl 1rnfl

[chelsea24]

1rnfl 1rnfl 1rnfl 1rnfl 1rnfl Oops! Nonie! The soap slipped! Wonder if Bernie can find it?
:a20: That's a new game! Hide the Soap! :o hahahahah I'm laughing so hard here! You nutty nutty gals! 1rnfl 1rnfl

[beady]

1rnfl 1rnfl 1rnfl

You all crack me up......how on earth did we get from "restless leg syndrome" to "hide the soap"

[barb1191]

Well, that sure is a new one....playing "hide the soap?" Never heard of THAT one. What am I missing? Did that come from Karma Sutra or.......?

oops, wrong thread; for a moment, thought that I was writing on "the never-ending story."

Senior moment barb :dontknow: :redface:

[Rokinronda]

Barb??!!!! To my surprise I also thought you were joining the NES!! Karma Sutra??? HMMMM now that sounds like an interesting subject and a possible cure for restless legs???......sorry :realmad: topic :cop:......continue please!!.......... 1rnfl 1rnfl 1rnfl 1rnfl 1rnfl 1rnfl 1rnfl

[Blondie]

You guys just crack me up. 1rnfl 1rnfl 1rnfl I am so happy to have found TOTV and TV. I just belly laugh sometimes, and it sure makes me feel good.

Girls, I just love you all and can't wait to see you again, and meet others.

md blondie

[samhass]

Chels, before you start playing hide the soap, you'd better take our Nonie's words about irritation to heart. Hide the soap and you may not be hiding anything else for a while.
I think I read that somewhere. :read: ;) LOL

AHA Sam....So you read Karma Sutra too? Think it was a best seller about fifty years ago....

:dontknow: :redface: :redface: ::)

Before your time daahlink...

[redwitch]

Uh oh. This ended up in the fem forum. Don't men get restless leg syndrome as well?


Considering where the topic has gone, I think the feminine forum is the perfect spot for it. Thanks, ladies, I needed a good chuckle.

[chelsea24]

Barb, I remember the Karma Sutra. Tried one of those positions once and ended up in emergency! :o LOLOL

[nONIE]

Chels,

Im dying to know um, the position that caused your emergency room visit!

ARE YOU SERIOUS!!!! 1rnfl 1rnfl 1rnfl 1rnfl 1rnfl 1rnfl

[chelsea24]

Yes Nonie! I'm serious! 1rnfl I'll tell you when I see you! :a20: Hey, I try anything once!

[nONIE]

OMG OMG OMG! I can hardly wait ::)

1rnfl 1rnfl 1rnfl 1rnfl

[samhass]

So Chels, did it give you restless leg syndrome????

[renielarson]

Bump...here is the other Restless Legs thread.

[barb1191]

Yes Nonie! I'm serious! 1rnfl I'll tell you when I see you! :a20: Hey, I try anything once!


Chels swung on the chandelier and missed the target and ended up on the doorknob. Had the EMT's escort her to the hospital.

Yes/No?? :dontknow: :redface: :o 040 1rnfl 1rnfl crap wav wav

Diagram 302 of Karma Sutra, page 365...j/k :read:

[chelsea24]

1rnfl 1rnfl 1rnfl Close, Barb, vedi vedi close! :a20:

[samhass]

Ouch.

[Barefoot]

Not sure how a medical issue morphed into Chel's secret sex life! (Obviously not so secret any more 1rnfl ) Chels, you might as well fill in the details .... we're waiting!

[beady]

Chels you devil....... :verymad: I think I want to hear the whole story......please 1rnfl 1rnfl

[samhass]

I didn't want anyone accused of hijacking a thread, so I modified the header. Go ahead Chels, tell us how you got your restless legs. ;)

[chelsea24]

Noooooooo-hoooooooooo! Not on this open forum! 1rnfl 1rnfl 1rnfl I'm nuts but not that nuts! ;D

[graciegirl]

Is it true that only oversexed people get restless legs syndrome? :o

The KamaSutra has to be carefully read and followed. ;D

I really hurt myself last year. :(

I told Sweetie NOT to jump off the dresser. :dontknow:

[islandgal]

Bad Girl Gracie....................

1rnfl 1rnfl 1rnfl ::) ::) 1rnfl 1rnfl

[nONIE]

We are going to have to organize a special Crispers Luncheon just to hear about Chels escapades!! Get ready Chels, Inquiring minds want to know! 1rnfl 1rnfl 1rnfl

[samhass]

Grace, come up to my desk this minute!! :o

Also, Md Blondie said "Girls, I just love you all and can't wait to see you again, and meet others."

Blondie...be careful what you wish for. We girls sometimes "ain't right"....meaning of course that we love being silly and having fun but acting like we don't have good sense. Oh, and we also do not like having restless leg syndrome. :cop:
It interferes with our senses of humor. We look forward to meeting you!

[Blondie]

Ditto, Sam, and if laughter is the best medicine I am going to be very healthy when I get to TV, but actually, I think Chels has a better cure for RLS, and I can't wait to hear about it. :joke:

MD Blondie

[barb1191]

Oh my dear Chels....It sure looks like "they" have you backed right up against the wall. Remember the 'ol saying...."foot in mouth?" Why "they" even are planning a special meeting to wring it out of you. Poor darlin'.....barb :redface:

[Barefoot]

Barb, I remember the Karma Sutra. Tried one of those positions once and ended up in emergency! :o LOLOL

I've heard that Chel's visit to emergency had something to do with a golf cart, a pina colada, leg weights, and licorice.

Could be just a rumour though. :dontknow:

[chelsea24]

hmmm, Bare! Is my story out? You forgot the rope and the mayonnaise 1rnfl!

[samhass]

OMGosh Chels, Is that why you asked if you could borrow a jar of mayo before you went home tonight???

[barb1191]

hmmm, Bare! Is my story out? You forgot the rope and the mayonnaise 1rnfl!



Ohhhh, and don't forget the spike heels, fishnet stockings, and the whipped cream.

Did I say that? Well, guess have to tell it like it is, huh Chels? :redface:

[chelsea24]

No fishnets Barb. Bobbie Sox! Yes Sam. Shhhhhh. Did you think I needed a late night tuna sandwich! ;)

[barb1191]

No fishnets Barb. Bobbie Sox! Yes Sam. Shhhhhh. Did you think I needed a late night tuna sandwich! ;)


Bobby sox???? Hmmmm you were that young huh? Oh my ...am speechless!! Not really, just an expression I kinda like. Very expressive, don't you think?

Well, don't know about the late-nite tuna sandwich, Chels. It doesn't float my boat, sorry. Something more like a decadent piece of chocolate fudge cake sounds good to me.....ala carte, oops.... no......ala mode. :dontknow:

Nitey nite to you and Sam, hugs, Barb zzzzzzz

[chelsea24]

No, not that young, in my 40's! And I still wear Bobbie Sox! 1rnfl 1rnfl

[samhass]

LOL, Blondie. Gracie will be calling you up to her desk, too!!

[graciegirl]

Actually I heard that there was a rubber suit involved and a whip. But you never can be sure.............................

[samhass]

Grace!!!!! Go up to your own desk!!!! :redface: :redface: :redface: ;)

[chelsea24]

Whips yes! No rubber! :o Ooops! That didn't come out right! 1rnfl 1rnfl 1rnfl

[Rokinronda]

Chels, go to gracies desk immediately!!!!!!! :o

[friendly11]

You gal's are very funny. I enjoyed your sex talk but I did not hear much in the way of advice about restless leg or leg cramps. I do get both. My DR. recommended Magnesium pills. They do not help me much. The banans don't help and neither did the soap. The only thing that worked wonders for me where Quinine pills. Unfortunately they are not available in the USA anymore. You can still get them in Canada. Stay loose.
