Another one of those helpful suggestions from friends who mean well. I could write a book on them! However, this one may have possible merit? It’s working for kids who can’t sleep and I wondered if anyone here has tried it?
Guess I am still searching for that magic cure.
I tried a weighted blanket, revitive xi, iron tablets, magnesium tablets, vitamin D. All to no avail. The weighted blanket just made my RLS feel worse as you can't move your legs easily. I would try it for yourself though as everyone's mileage differs 
I find it remarkable in this day and age that snake oil salesmen are still free to roam the earth.
Just my opinion.
I tried the weighted blanket. It felt kinda nice, but really didn't help with the RLS. It now sits in the drawer next to the grounded sheet.
Then I found Dr B and am sleeping well with a script of 5 mg methadone twice daily. I do have some problems getting pharmacies to fill the script, what with the moral panic against opioids here in the US.
I also tried a weighted blanket. Didn’t help at all. If anything I felt worse 
Yes I hear you with the Weighted Blanket. I was pinned down but my legs still jumped from the inside even though they couldn’t move
I noticed that you quilt. I do as well, and if I do a lot of machine sewing my RLS increases. Now when this happens, I soak in Dr. Teal's epsom salts, take 2 or 3 Gabapentin and sleep 5 or6 hours uninterrupted. It is a miraclefor me after suffering for 25 years.
How interesting! When I quilt or sew my brain is so preoccupied I don’t have restless Legs. At night when I can’t sleep I often get up and do some sewing, then try sleeping again. Sometimes it works other times it won’t.
Weighted blanket
Has anyone else tried GABA?
Anyone tried Zopiclone?
Has anyone tried Seratame?
