RLS (Restless Leg Sydrome)

[Vicodin113 10+ year member]

The last 3 months have been the worst of my life. At night time around 9 o'clock my left leg (lower leg) becomes so extremly uncomfortable that its undescribable. Trying to sleep is impossible and basicly nothing can be done about it. After doing a shit load of reading I found out that lots of water, streching, eating good and no caffine should do the trick.

For the last 2 months Ive drank over a gallon of water a day and eatten the best foods/worked out an insain amount. STILL just as bad, not even a hint of getting better.

Ive tryed sleeping pills and the only thing I get out of it is becoming more tired and just as uncomfortable.

I would rather have my leg broken then feel this feeling everynight.

Ive tryed getting drunk off my mind, but then after the drunkness wears off after a couple hours I wake up and have an early hang over.

Ive taken some vicodin (hench my name) from a friend who had his teeth pulled and this is the only thing ive taken or done that has made it 100% back to normal.

Anyone else have RLS? And what have you done to help.

I would go to the doctor but my new job I just started doesnt set my incurance in for a couple months and a doctor vist and whatever else he suggests would be alot of money and will be going there soon but not just yet.

I havent slept in about 2 days (give or a take a couple hours here and there with hour naps MAX).

When I heard a commercial on the radio for this, I nearly lost it. As if we don't have enough miserable excuses for disorders and diseases (Let's see. ADD, IBS, yuo name it.)

Restless Leg Syndrome.

Isn't that pushing it a little? Agh. I thought for sure this thread would be scoffing at the idea. I'm sorry if it makes you uncomfortable, and I hope you find a solution.

Last night I was up the whole night. Its the most frusterating thing ive ever experinced in my life.

Its so undescribable and I used to laugh at that comercial also thought it was ****ing dumb.

But now that I have it... its like the worst thing. I have alergies and asthma (alittle) and stupid shit but nothing in my life can compair to how uncomforatble this makes me feel at night.

I dont get mad/angry at many things. But last night i was so frusterated and pissed off that I just went bazerk and started punching shit...

I cant emphasis how shitty this is, ive been in a car accident and didnt wake up for 2 days with broken legs, arms, ribs, concusion (if thats spelt right) and would rather have that happen agian then have to go through this shit everynight.

Im going to the doctor next week no if ands or butts. I just needed a solution for the time being.
