Hi and thanks to all who take time to write a wee post ..means a lot when you kno others are the same .but was bak at doc two weeks ago .guess what ! He gave me a very strong painkiller . Three times a day .havent a clue as to why. The box is unopened and will remain that way. I do not have in any way pain with rls never did. So will stick to my pregablin and pramipexole. Docs dont have a clue. But realy thank you all

What is the name of this Devils sup?

Opiate painkillers are the most effective treatment for rls known.

You don't say why the Dr gave you this- but if you are on Prami- then there is a chance you went into him with augmentation.

Maybe he does have a clue!😈

Jeanniebeannie, i am asking the same, what pain meds are they. ? You dont have to have pain with your RLS to take pain meds, pain meds can work really well for RLS. Alot of us take them and get some good sleep. So, in this case your doctor is right. BUT, i would like to know what YOU said to your doctor about you not sleeping and he must have said something to you when prescribing the pain meds.

Jeanie opiate painkillers work on the urge to move sensations as well as on pain so might be worth a try x

Hi Jeanniebeannie,

I don't have any pain at all with my RLS, just that horrible creeping, crawling, feeling and the absolute need to move the legs. I'm on painkillers- oxycontin and they definitely dampen down the RLS feeling. Like all the others above say, opiates are really effective for RLS.
