Hello. I'm wondering if what I thought was a car with bad seats might be something more to do with me..

When I sit it feels like i'm sitting on gravel (back of my legs rather than my bum) Originally thought it was a bad back thing but now I'm not sure. I'm typing this laid on the floor and I can feel my legs 'bubbling'. Any thoughts?

Hi maff

If you click on the following link taken from the RLS-UK website and can tick all the boxes you will be able to decide whether you have RLS or not.

rls-uk.org/faqs/4568109901

Certain medicines can actually make RLS worse and these are listed in this link too.

Hi Maff, my legs gurgle as I call it and that's a sign my RLS is kicking off. I cannot control jerking movements in my legs. On prescription tabs, they do help most of the time. Have you seen GP?

Hi Maff, ( that's what I fondly used to call my son Matt),

A few weeks ago I wrote on here somewhere that a while back I bought a new car and was having problems with my legs/back.

I have Fibro and RLS, my friend said to try adjusting the seat and he was right.

Just a thought as you mentioned your car seats.

:)
