Something you all might want to try. 1 tsp of apple cider vinegar (organic). 1 tsp of honey (organic) in a 1/2 cup of water. works miracles. I am off lyrics and down to 1/4 of a 4 milligram equip pill. works about 80% of the time. I take it every morning and eve and have had great relief. I have had rls for about 40 years and have gone through just about every med there is for this horrible disease. I am very relieved and calm taking the mixture. no side effects and great results.

Wow! Thanks so much for the information!

I sometimes take a small swig of apple cider vinegar when symptoms come on. I haven’t found it 100% reliable but it does seem to help - at least some times. I hadn’t considered using it pre-emptively - might try that.

Awesome! Thanks!

I,m so glad this is helping you. I tried it a few months ago and after a few days and no relief from RLS I developed quite marked flushing of face with burning heat in cheeks. I stopped ACV and in a few days face was back to normal. I was so disappointed because ACV is supposed to help lots of things.

I just saw your post again and noticed - again, but didn’t react to it before - that you still take 1/4 of a 4 mg ‘equip’ pill. I guess you meant to write requip? That is 1mg of requip or ropinirole ( generic name), which is currently the highest recommended dose by Dr Buchfuhrer. Because of the risk of augmentation and withdrawal symptoms after that. Were you on a higher dose of requip before? If so, what dose? And how have you decreased you dose and do you plan to decrease further? And why did you get off the Lyrica?

Hope your nights are (still?) camlm and quiet.
