restless leg syndrome.

RESTLESS LEG SYNDROME?

PMS AND FIBROMYALGIA?

MEDICATION I TAKE FOR FIBROMYALGIA?

well i'm better today. not sure why. i guess because you wake up in a new world everyday. when you sleep that is. now i'm having problems with sleep. cant go to sleep but then i'm sleepy all day long. my restless leg syndrome has worsened. dr. put me on requip and new rls med but i don't think its high enough dosage. i just toss and turn and my legs move all night so i get up around 3:00 am and walk the floor some then go back to bed. if i could get off all these meds i would be so happy. i tried that once and almost ended up in the hosp. so if you've never had rls it sucks. your legs ache, and the only relief is to move them. i've had this all my life. i remember when i was 10 i had open heart surg. and they did a heart cath on my right femoral artery. i had to keep my leg still because they had it tied down. well, i got deathly sick to my stomach, they had to stop because i was trying to move my leg i paniced. it was bad, but i realized i could move my foot in a circle and that relieved it a little. at least enough for them to finish. the more you try not to move your legs the worse it gets, thefore, restless leg. sucks for you spouse if they cant sleep with you moving but luckily i have one that can sleep thru anything and it doesnt bother him at all. until next time.
