Amusing post

I was sent this:

I direct you to the comments made by Derek H. Page from The People’s Pharmacy. I think this is a joke but there is some proper advice further down.

Hi raffs have tried the soap ,no go ,and it's all very well to say a recurring sleep Patton I'm not getting a lot of sleep how do we find a sleep Patton it would be great to have an 8 hr sleep ,

[Hidden in reply to Mopsy1950]

I have always had an 8 hr sleep pattern.

The only problem was it was 8 hours over the course of a week

[Mopsy1950 in reply to Hidden]

That's good ,getting about the same raff not funny is it

[Hidden in reply to Mopsy1950]

It isn't

Leaving aside the urge to move, leaving aside the pain, leaving aside the side effects of the drugs, leaving aside the inability to sit through a movie at peace; ignoring all them, the chronic insomnia has a terribly detrimental effect on all of us.

It's such a shame people don't understand and a disgrace that there are people like Derek H. Page who are so willing to capitalise on our misery.

That's typical as long as the money's coming in who really gives a dam

RLS certainly changes ones life. I find that as my RLS has gotten worse over the years that I don't go out at night or plan anything at night because of the RLS. It has changed my whole life.

Oh My Word, !! I hope his idea of the scent modules seeping first through the sheets or socks, then seeping through our skin to our blood supply works, IS a joke and he is not serious. And i bet the soap made especially for using cost a arm and a leg. ! Oh well, the soap thingy has been around for years and years and will go on and on.

Yes, if only we could get a sleep pattern going. most of us dont have a sleep pattern and some of us, would like to know where we can find it. !

I know! it seemed like a joke until I read it all.

Its a bloody insult!

Special soap with special sent molecules specially designed to treat RLS £100 a bar and needs to be replaced weekly.

I recon Raffs that the soap is belonging to his firm ,and he's hoping to make a bob ,now fancy thinking that x

[Mopsy1950 in reply to Hidden]

The sleep Patton sounds like Heaven ,and if we could find it in heaven I think a lot of us would be there

O M G Mopsy the day will come not to soon for me I hope

OH GOD! not the soap! It is NOT a joke and I have been dealing with the idiocy of bars of soap for over 2 decades, I WISH I could say it is a joke, but that web site is anti meds, and they will publish anything. It is an old wive's tale and web sites like that with an agenda against meds, will put anything up. This has been an issue in many groups over the years, and I am sooooooo tired of the "soap remedy" which is NO remedy.

[nightdancer]

I filled out a survey years ago, and that idiot Derek H Fisher sent me a box of the "RLS Bed Soap", NO COMMENT on that conversation! BUT, I have a friend who is a chemist, has wicked RLS and his first job was in soap factory. The scent molecules absorbing into your skin and up to your brain is total BS. I had many emails back and forth with the jerk.

[Hidden in reply to nightdancer]

I was sent the link and as such liked it, it was funny and I was glad I got it.

When I realised it was serious I was quite annoyed and asked the person not to send me any RLS 'help' that included soap as treatment.

I would love to give my RLS to them for a month and after the second day I'd suggest soap. A day later I'd ask how it was going and when they report the inevitable I'll tell them they weren't giving the scent molecules a chance, and repeat daily, see how they like those lavender scented crazy legs?

I have always said that those who claimed to have cured their RLS using a bar of soap, never had RLS in the first place.

It's beyond belief that these parasites exist. I believe in Karma, and one day Derek will be reincarnated with raging RLS 24/7.
