Hello...I am wondering if any of you have experienced not just the restlessness of RLS but pain? I have been diagnosed with RLS -my mother had it- but my calves/shins ache and throb at night. I wonder if it even is RLS or something else that I should have doctors look into. Gabapentin made the pain worse and Rinpinerol had no effect. I also put on weight with gabapentin and at my age, i'm not willing to do that again. Lyrica was recommended but honestly I do not want to be on meds the rest of my life. Accupuncture helped a bit so I am starting that again soon.
But my real question is if anyone has the pain I am experiencing and if not, perhaps its not just RLS i am experiencing.
thanks!!
