RLS

I’m looking to find any conversation about RLS in men. I have had RLS for 47 years, and the older you get the worse it gets. Right now I’m at the max with the medication, and the RLS starts at 2:00 pm and goes from there. Sometimes it will stop at 5:00 pm, when I take the meds but it is like clockwork, it will start about 10: 00 pm and even after taking the meds I’m up all night. Sometimes it will run 24 to 48 hours and believe me I am not a happy camper when this happens. Thank God I am retired now because I don’t know what I would do if I had work the next day. The sad thing is there is no cure for this, and where I live there isn’t any Dr that specializes in RLS. Well I think my thumbs are getting tired so I guess I’ll sign off for now.

I am presuming by RLS you mean restless leg syndrome ? If you have this level of problem, I would think that seeing a neurologist would be the only option.
