Flipping restless legs

[Robinredbreast]

Hi @masonbason63 , I have it too and yes it's truly horrible isn't it, I wouldn't wish it on anybody
Strangely I was talking to my son about it just an hour ago and he told me that he had just been told that it's much more common in people with coeliacs disease - 31% compared with 4% of non coeliacs.
As @Robinredbreast mentioned, there is some medication available which you can take if it doesn't clash with other meds you might be on, so a visit to your GP could be very worthwhile. I hope you get some relief.

Yep, got that too, Coeliacs but the RLS came first

Haven't got coeliacs but have gastroporiasis

Another stomach condition, sorry to hear that

Oh Rrb, you really do get so many auto immune problems don't you that must be so horrible. So you haven't always been coeliac? It's got me wondering now though whether I might actually be coeliac too, as my granddaughter is, my son is and I gather it's genetic,
Oh God, another doc's appointment
Sorry @masonbason63 , I didn't mean to hijack your thread.

I think I cope fairly well it's manageable but can be a nuisance

I can only imagine that if it's not one thing, it's another isn't it ?

Take good care.

Here we go again up early can RLS be worse in one leg more than the other ? My right leg which was damaged in a car accident always seems a lot worse

Morning, oh I'm sorry about that, could be nerve damage in that leg possibly? it's so frustrating and you just want to scream at it, so sympathies all round . I do get that from time to time and the other night I forgot to take my teatime tablets, then at
8 pm my leg, (seems to be more the left one,) was doing an Irish jig with the pulling sensation in between.
Off to the Theatre again tomorrow afternoon and I have to take a tablet, or I can't sit and watch it !!
Try and have a good day today, take care RRB

Can't help you with that one, sorry

I've never taken anything for RLS and yet my wife is sure that I suffer from it.. Who'd have thought RLS & T2D?!

Honestly, you would know if you have it it can be a horrendous condition

 

[Living-by-the-beach]

As T2D can be really bad too. Might one have a mild variant of RLS?
