Restless Leg Syndrome (RLS)
 

My husband Ron is SUFFERING with RLS.
If he suffers, WE suffer. If you have RLS, survived someone with RLS, hurt for your partner with RLS, please share here. He / WE :sigh: deserve help. Suggest away. To top it off, 2 months ago he had a partial knee replacement done. All experiences welcome.
Many thanks.

I too have RLS. Dr. prescribed mirapex for it. No problems since.

I drink tomato juice every night about half an hour before bed. If that doesnt work I then I take a pill.
I bought some over the counter pills on Amazon. I will try to find the exact name and post it...

I have taken ropinirole for about 4 years. Works great. I have Restless Leg Syndrom that goes all the way through my body.

I have taken Clonapin for many years. Works for me.

I got RLS from the side effects of statin cholesterol medicine. Klonopin has controlled it.

Have you tried magnesium supplements?

My mother has had RLS for years. She has always taken 1 mg of Mirapex three times a day. Recently, the doctor had to raise it to 4 times a day. The neurologist recommended she take 1 at 6 PM and the other 3 at bedtime.

I don't have it very badly so on the nights when it starts I take an OTC homeopathic sublingual (under the tongue) pill from Hyland's called "Restful Legs." It comes in a 50 count bottle and I get it at Wal-Mart but you can get it at any drug store. I think they have it in regular pills but the SL acts faster.

my wife has RLS and had reactions from different meds the dr.'s put her on....crazy thing she read about trying a bar IVORY soap just below your feet between the fitted sheet and matress pad....she did this about 3 months ago and has had great results
