13 Year old With RLS – Restless Leg Syndrome?

Sarah M asked:


Hi, I’m 13 years old.
turning 14 in a couple of months.

And I have RLS, I had RLS for basically all of my life, you don’t know what RLS is, it’s restless leg syndrome.

I always, kick when I sleep.
I take extra strength pills that my doctor subsribed, and it doesn’t work.

Sometimes I wake up with bruises.
And in the worst cases , *I can’t go to school, because of my sore legs. (* is that a bad thing? haha joking.)

But it’s really starting to bug me.
I **** it.

Anything that I should do?
Like to get more restfull sleep?
I do have cold hands, alot.
My hair lacks in shine, seriously.

And for the person who says they don’t think I have RLS, I do, My doctor told me so. Why else would I be taking medication?

I take centrum pills, are those good?
