4 Replies

Hi,

My RLS seems to be really bad every morning when i waje up. It borders on painful. And yet on a night, i don't really get RLS symptoms. Is this unusual?

Not to sure with this one ? Someone with more experience will be able to possibly explain but I have never heard of morning RLS without at least some at night hope you get an answer

I'm wrong. I am getting RLS symptoms at night. Only from about 1am onwards. This has suddenly got worse in the last month and I'm only getting about 2 hours sleep every night. This is hell :(

Just started on rotigotine patches 1mg last night but had no effect so far

Same as me ,go to sleep but the twitches have me awake and up again, I think a lot of us go through different stages all of a sudden HOPEFULLY it might settle down again for awhile hope this is right for you good luck
