My RLS is beginning to affect my abdominal muscles, Helluva way to get a Short case, a 12 pack for the young, of Abs. Pain at a whole new level. I've been given a Tens unit to try on my left leg the most active area on my body. Has anyone else used one for RLS? I haven't been able to try mine yet. I can only use one hand the contact pads are too delicate to be handled incorrectly with one hand. The leg is only active at night. It's doing its one hop kick now. I'm chewing up .5 mg Pramepexole so I can get to bed

Yeah, the good times are hard to find with RLS. It takes over your life? Try exercising. I'm going to return to the weight room to do cardio and resistance exercising again. I start Acupuncture next week I am severely disabled if I can workout anyone can. Make yourself feel better about yourself. Without known cause(s) for RLS how can there ever be an effective treatment? Heal yourself. Do good things to make your body feel better. Try Mg citrate, Negativity is your biggest enemy

I told a Rheumatologist dr. that I had severe RLS because it started bothering me during the day so that my leg(s) and sometimes my whole body was jerking. Ropinrole would calm them eventually most of the time, but not all. She told me that RLS was only at night and that something else was going on. She took x-rays and put me in physical therapy. The x-rays showed that I had disc-degeneration in my lower back. The physical therapist told me I had bursitis in both hips. I learned very quickly that putting pressure on muscles around those areas and thighs was very painful. The physical therapist told me the pain from my back and bursitis had radiated into my muscles. The inflammation from ALL of that irritated the sciatic nerve which then caused the muscles to tighten and flex causing intolerable discomfort and jerking. I am still battling all of it with medication, Ropinirole and anti-inflammatory drug, and chiropractic txs. Ice packs also help. One dr. prescribed Lyrica, but the only thing that does is make me sleepy so I sleep a little better at night. Sleep is also a challenge.

Erona, you are being so negative.. what's wrong? Do you need shoes thrown at you or what...lol (kidding you) I know exactly what you mean by quality of life when the

night drives you mad with pain, rls, and worrying about not getting enough sleep to

keep you going at work the next day... life becomes about finding the sleep somewhere

and sometime but when that time comes and the body is ready, you are punched in

at work, needing to commit. Does it help to say that most of us are in there with you?

Even an old crow like me (I'm 48) needs to complain and moan about it.. sometimes...
