Just been diagnosed also with splay-foot and clawtoes and need arch support.

Maybe this makes it worse?

RLS can cause spasticity and more often than not, that 'feeling' goes hand-in-hand with RLS. However, I have not known RLS to be responsible for that 'wobbly' feeling. It sounds to me as if you have a problem with your nerves which appear to be reacting to something going on inside your system. A different specialist should give you more accurate information and awareness as to what you are experiencing. Good Luck!

Hi Sandee. As my RLS advanced my arms and legs became spastic and would often flail out/around. My legs were kicking so hard that two weeks ago I tore a ligament In my knee because of it. My legs feel quite wobbly after an episode. I think your muscles just get exhausted. If it weren’t for the Oxycontin I’d go mad. You might want to check with your doctor to see if they can order bloodwork to make sure this isn't a vitamin Or hormone deficiency causing it. Best wishes for peaceful slumbers 🥺😴😴😴😴😴

This interview between two doctors is extremely interesting. I'm not selling anything nor do I have any investment in any products they mention, but this information was EPIC for me. God bless: youtube.com/watch?v=OmtRhVA...

I stopped watching this when the “Dr” (he is a naturopath) said that no one gets enough calcium from the food they eat and we all need supplements. How ridiculous, but I guess that’s how he makes a living.
