Reatless legs are a pain!! mine start on clockwprk 8pm and i have to talk constanrly round my flat and stretching over the bed and kitchen bunker and on the floor etc etc…but nothing working…any tips???
Can you get in to see your doctor? I was prescribed cogentin and it worked very well.
never heard of that one. i am not in a position to inform my gp of why they are so restless
Thanks
Then don’t tell them why and just say that they are. There might be some natural supplements that help if you search on Google. Also there’s threads on here that have good info if you use the search function
Why aren’t you in a position to tell your gp why your legs are restless?

I agree with magnesium, thanks for the reminder actually! Mine feel restless tonight also because I forgot to take it today. It really helps me!

Hi there. I had restless legs too. I called it electronic fleas! My doc wrote a script for Sifrol and it worked 100%. You only take it as needed and it’s not addictive in any way at all. Hope this helps.

I used to get the same thing in my chest. That totally uncomfortable feeling inside both legs and chest. You can’t scratch it or rub it out. Unbearable! Sifrol really did work. And my doc said it was fairly common in us.
Vitamin supplements especially potassium help with restless legs. Any medication such as benadryl or even melatonin taken with the wrong does can trigger restless legs.
I didn’t know it was this common. I thought I was the only one that got them.
It started a month after I got sober. I thought it had to do with the meds I was put on. Maybe not now. Sounds like it may be a withdrawal symptom.
Thank You All So V Much!!!

They have a restless leg medication that is over the counter with no prescription needed at the pharmacy u could try.
can you recommend anything?
whats in them and can u get them in the uk?? god knows what ill be needing soon…6 hoirs sleep in 2 days is such a trigger. I am near enough hobbling on the legs as they are so restless amd move uncontrollably and my partners responce or words of kindness help in anyway??? Absolute Jack Shit and faces the TV like i dont exsist SIGH
I used to do push-ups and sit-ups until my whole body would be exhausted. Sometimes it would work pretty well
Nearly at day 6 Opiate free and legs just as bad! started doing stretches rather than excercising them.
Bought Magnesium after speaking with you lovely lot…am i being inpatient??
Its making me trigger bad because i slept for 2 hours and 37 mins last night and doing a 12 hour shift yoday…HELP!!
Honestly, if you aren’t willing to go to the doctor you are probably just going to have to soldier through. I know Donnie showed you the OTC stuff so if that doesn’t work I dunno
Waiting for the delivery of the stuff recommended, thanks.
