I have had tremendous success with compression socks. I wear regular compression socks during the day and thigh high compression stockings at night. I also take CBD oil, magnesium and other electrolytes, eat low carb diet, and.0625 mg Mirapex. I just started 100 mg Gabapentin...which I may discontinue. Of all the above, compression socks and stockings made the biggest impact.

Hi! I love my compression stockings too!
Do the stockings help by preventing attacks or do they actually cause symptoms to abate after they start to appear?

Both. I’ve jumped out of bed to put them on and I felt immediate relief. I wear the socks all day now and replace them with the stockings just before bed.
I’ve had RLS on and off since I was 17. It then became a nightly issue about 6 years ago (I’m 63). I’m also convinced that augmentation is why it got worse. It may be in my head, but it seems like things are improving. Forcing myself to cut back on Mirapex has helped.
Interesting. I live in the tropics and it's too hot for compression stockings
