I get restless third-leg syndrome.

Maybe you aren't getting enough potassium in your diet?

lol, bamski...you have no idea how funny that was....because my internet is so damn slow here; the image was loading little piece by little piece...and i was really scared of what was going to show up haha

pie, i have no idea; everything i've read about it shows more of not getting enough iron, nicht potassium. but then again, there isn't a whole lot of studies/knowledge about it in general.

stu, if you have restless third leg, then it could help out your other two actually.

Well are you SURE it's RLS and not just muscle cramps?

Yeah, pretty sure. I only get it when i'm lying down at night. usually before i start getting really tired. and it's not cramps, cause there's nothing to really massage out of it. it's just a weird jumpy/tingly sensation that if i try to control ends up being really bad spasm lol.

but i've never seen a DR or anything about it. but that article about getting off to help reduce the RLS gives me hope

One of my friends at school had this a while back; doctor told her to walk or exercise for 40 minutes a day inferring I do believe that it's caused by poor circulation.

I just called and woke her up to ask her if the walking helped so I could respond in this thread.

Haha, she told me to fuck off and hung up on me! I totally need to pay closer attention to the time when I call people.



But if it helps her, it seems what she does would kind of go hand and hand with Theresa's post and solution, I imagine. Stretching, walking, exercising...

I used to suffer from restless leg syndrome. Seriously. I'd have to get up out of bed, stretch, run in place, take a shower, do anything and everything i could to get my legs from feeling so restless. I have a perfect cure though. Get a yorkie. My little puppy sleeps on my legs now. Its just enough weight to keep em place and subdue the the restless legs.

They often treat RLS with Benzodiazepines or opioids

the founder of Dub Step had Restless Leg Syndrome. tru story

Drinking tons of water helps me a lot.

SOME say it makes you go blind. Others reply that hey, the lights are out anyway, and I need some sleep. Yes, we're talking about masturbation. And later, about how doing it more often can be good for your health. Particularly if you suffer from Restless Leg Syndrome - a condition that causes as much consternation in scientific circles as it does to those who claim to suffer from it. http://www.news.com.au/technology/s...8#ixzz1IR5Ex4ns

If PKC was a D&D player, his character would be +5 immunity to RLS. And +1 on t-shirt creation.

Seriously? With the super-gay montage, I thought you must have actually done it yourself

Get some exercise OP.

Originally posted by tubularbills Anyone have this? I only notice it in myself when I'm laying down at night, and i feel this weird tugging kind of feeling in my lower legs. normally, they spasm a little on their own when i'm really freakin' tired...and if i try to hold them still on my own, the tugging feeling gets worse and my legs eventually violently spasm. The pain/tugging feeling seems to be best kept at by if i wiggle my toes or ankles around on occasion. It never causes me insomnia, and I never wake up in the middle of the night with the twitching/kicking sensation. but it's really fucking annoying! http://www.webmd.com/sleep-disorder...gs-syndrome-rls

Try eating a banana before bedtime. I used to get muscle spasms, it usually is from low potassium levels in the body.

Originally posted by infiniteJEST I get it whenever I'm stoned. Stretching it out always helps.

That's one of the many reasons why I stopped smoking.

honestly, my exercise in the form of running has increased since i deployed....and the RLS has decreased. but then again a lot of other things have changed as well. so there's too many variables in the mix.

I get it occasionally as well, I find it's usually after I haven't done much physicaly for that day or two.

Stretching all my leg muscles usually does the trick. Very irritating still.

shit is annoying the hell out of me. during the day i feel like i have to constantly move, and at night it's about 10x worse. it occasionally is in my right arm too....where it feels like the entire arm (and leg) is stiffening up....like the muscles are turning to stone...but i give it a good jerk (lol) and it helps. sometimes the jerks (lol) are violent. during my sleep i move a lot. shouldn't the body be fucking still when you are sleeping???

It stops me from sleeping and getting comfortable to sleep. I do a lot of pacing around the Apt with my e-cig.

Reading some of the older posts in the Thread, mine could be due to large amounts of drugs I took in my 20's.

My Dad tells me he gets it here and there also but he just walks to the fridge and gets some snack or something to drink and then he goes right back to bed.

I didn't do any drugs lol.

Being in your field, I figured you didn't or if so, very little drugs.

I'm just opposite as you as it seems to wake you up where it stops me from sleeping or does it prevent you from sleep as well.
