What a disappointment, nothing about causes, nothing about things to avoid and help and lastly nothing about medications available. Too much about unsympathetic partners and there is no way her nails could have been painted if her legs were that bad ! Sadly too much for the camera !

I was thinking the same - there were people making things worse for themselves due to not respecting their partner, (the woman whose husband was uncaring - why keep sticking your feet at/on him if he doesn't like it. When my legs are bad I couldn't sit by my wife. She was drinking alcohol a notorious poison that makes RLS worse.

The dude with a poor memory and no one had the f**king cop on to leave a list!!!!

No drugs - you could have mentioned DA's and opioids etc without mentioning brand names - some Dr's might have been educated.

It is OK in that it did shoe some of the horror of RLS but didn't do full justice, man would I not love to make that documentary, it would have been better!!!

Agree with all you have said. No way I can sit have to walk. Very disappointing.

in reply to keiralee

I have ME too and many nights I have not got the energy to walk pace or work to distract/ease the RLS so I tend to lie on the floor and roll about, a bit like hte guy with the bad memory in bed sleeping but I am like that awake.

There would be no way I would put my self thorough a pedicure, seemed a very silly idea when if she wanted to 'beat' RLS she should have gone out with her friends as she claimed isolation is a big factor with RLS not good looking nails!!!
