Is there a meeting you could go to?  Or someone you could call and talk to on the phone?  Remember....cravings don't last too long usually!  

Keep busy and push through it!!!  Keep posting!

Im sorry!! Can you put on your Ipod and take a walk? That does wonders for me! Or watch a funny movie or read a book/magazine when you are home! You will over time find what helps you when you are craving! Promise.....it does get easier! Just takes time

Dominosarah pretty much covered it all!! AT night I found putting a big fluffy pillow between your legs sometimes would help also. It is annoying but the worst of it is almost over! Stay strong!

Congrats on 4 days!!!  You should start feeling better fairly soon i would think.  Usually the 3rd or 4th day is the worst.  There is a supplement called Hylands that many take for RLS.  Some people have also wrapped their legs too.  Bananas can be helpful as they are full of potassium.  Soak in a warm bath and see how that goes too.  Getting up and moving around will also help.  I know this is tough and the RLS is miserable but it will go away.  You are doing great so keep it going!!!!!!!   sara
