What country are you in?

Please try to get an appointment with a sleep clinic that is recommended by either of these two organisations.

UK rls-uk.org

Or USA

rlshelp.org

There are good medical people out there, bit it can be difficult to locate them.

I'm taking it that you are in the UK, So there are a lot of people on here who may be able to recommend a doctor near you.

Do not lose hope-- there are solutions for even the worst cases of rls. It is just a matter of getting the right doctor.

All the best-- and keep in touch. 😍

I know exactly how you feel! I suffered so long to the point i said “cut it off”! Finally, a Dr prescribed ropinerol, a med used for epilepsy. It has worked wonders for me. Maybe something for you to try.
