wow, what a well written, concise article. It covers just about everything one needs to know about RLS. Very interesting that the article states that Obstructive sleep apnea can bring on or worsen RLS. I found this to be one of the (3) causes of mine. I have a night and day difference when I sleep with my sleep dental appliance given all other planets of the universe align... thank you for sharing. I printed a copy to provide to my general practitioner since he has been open to traveling this journey with me. He knew next to nothing about RLS when I appeared in his office with the complaint.

Thank you for your report. I really like to hear other peoples opinions. Yes, this is a great resource for us and our Doctors. My Doctor is being dragged on the journey, July 19 I see a new Neurologist. I will probably look like a lawyer with my stacks of papers.

I like that it address augmentation right up front.
