I have this disease too, and most of my immediate family also suffers. I think what’s most important are the things that we avoid versus the things that we take. I would definitely cut back on caffeine, cigarettes and stimulants, especially before bedtime. Regular exercise may also help. I wish there were a good remedy out there too, and I’m interested if anybody else has a known remedy or cure.
The only thing that has helped my girl is to soak in a hot tub for a few. There is no sense in trying to sleep for your going bonkers with the legs, but A hot soak in a bathtub seems to really do the trick. Oh yea, and motrin if your not allergic to it. Should do you fine. Good luck.
Slo-Mag or another form of magnesium sulfate may help. There are actually new meds out specifically for RLS but from what I have read they may have some pretty heavy duty side effects. It may be worth checking out if your RLS is severe. Talk to your doc about it.
Calcium/Magnesium. 1000mg Calcium 500mg Magnesium daily has worked for me. I Definitely agree with no stimulants or caffeine or cigarettes. Go to your local health food store, they will help. Good Luck.
