I wish I wish I wish, they would get a move on. I really don't want to spend my remaining years waiting every night for it to start and then going nuts because it makes me so angry......... My homeopathic help seems to have lost some of its power.

I am going to try the intercellular fluid thing next, my daughter is a stem cell scientist and seem to think it has some sence to it, more than soap on your feet anyway......and yes I've tried that too, as well as grounding myself to an earth when Ime in bed.

I had a coffee in a well known shop where u can pay in bucks and get stars for repeated visits........... Yes that one, I usually have decaf soy but I am sure they gave me milk, I had a dreadful night last night, even two tramadol wouldn't stop it.

in reply toMiggles

Why don't you get some Lorazepam to help you sleep they work. : )

i dont like taking them, they make me a zombie the next day :(

in reply to

Lorazepam is a good sedation drug. I would think

that it would work really well..short term.

I also read it today, for me it was new!! I know that a shortage of iron can cause RLS, but this is something different!!

Iron shortage to the brain? I just took another iron tablet..

I can afford to. My iron fell a little bit. I just had lab results

called to my phone. That article is true. It was so bad for

me at the funeral that a cousin gave me a strong narcotic.

I was so fixated on my RLS that I lost the message of

hope and faith during the service.

Reading back on my messages that I wrote to you folks,

RLS was all that I thought of in this horrible horrible,

tragic incident of my sister's death. I am still thinking about

RLS. .............isn't that sad? My sister was close to my

best friend.. truly. RLS won my attention.

in reply to

Dont be so hard on yourself... of course RLS was on your mind, hard not to notice it there when it plays up. We are not superhuman, just human. And probably you didnt want to think about what happen to your sister, our brains apart from it seems to lack dopamine, also act weirdly when a bad thing happens in our lives.

in reply to

My doctor said that it's shock. I'm in denial until

it's my time to deal with it. I still feel nothing. I'm

normal in every way otherwise.

What more can I say except RLS won entirely and it

controlled my behaviors for I couldn't stand still, sit

for more than a few minutes. My legs had to walk, be

busy through the whole event.

in reply to

Yikes, dont be so hard on yourself, i was exactly the same, when i had my nieces funeral, i could not keep still myself, and yes its shock, i had to stay at the back and pace up and down, i was anxious to get out, but gritted my teeth and stayed,

I was supposed to stand by the family. People were in a long line

to express sympathy. I didn't know 75% of her husbands co workers,

workers.. (he's a big employer) so I went to mingle with people that

I knew.. from group to group while trying to get a grip on the legs.

I did sleep well and now it's time for more family time/ a luncheon

I am free to move about again.. I am grateful for that. ..

We all deal with grieve in different ways, you are still in shock, your doctor is right, you will deal with it when you are ready... Dont keep beating yourself up. <3
