Wine actually aggravates RLS for many (but glad to hear it works consistently for Niepowiem). Sometimes it helps me, sometimes it sets off the RLS. Not sure if it has to do with the grape or other ingredients or what. But I’m writing because you clearly live in a state where marijuana is not yet legal. First, marijuana doesn’t help everyone, but it seems to help a lot of folks. In the US you can get marinol prescribed. It’s a synthetic form of THC. Per mg it seems much stronger than what is available in edible form at a dispensary. As a synthetic, it is also missing all the wonderful cannabinoids associated with full or broad spectrum marijuana. But you could probably get a prescription of marinol and then use over the counter broad spectrum CBD tincture (or pill/capsule) to attempt the same effect. If you cross state lines to go to a dispensary (you cannot legally bring it back), make sure to grab a product with CBN, it is very helpful for sleep. Anyway, good luck with the doctor this morning. Hope the appointment goes well and possibles solutions are offered.

Gabapentin has worked for me. I take 3 600 mg capsules about an hour apart in the evening before bed. 90% of the time this works and I can sleep peacefully. Good luck.
