I actually don't know if it's this (RLS) or something else. I have been to Jefferson sleep center, robert wood jonhson sleep center, and variety of docs. Every test in the world, and nobody knows what it is???
My symptoms: I don't know when it's going to happen, but it always happens at night, and sometimes during the day. My left leg violently kicks as though I'm kicking a ball backwards, or forwards, then I spasm up thru my body. My right leg kicks much less infrequently, maybe every few days. My left leg is everyday and night. I am always sucking my toungue and lips, I can't keep still or stay anywhere too long, I have this over whelming feeling that I have to leave, When my leg isn't involintarily kicking, both my legs will moving up and down, fast, people call it unused energy, but I'm so tired, I have no energy or inkling to move my legs at all!!
I have bi-polar disorder, and was put on resperdol and zyprexa for over 5 years, when my leg started kicking, my doc thought it may be a side effect of those drugs, so she took me off, but 3 years later and I am still suffering!!
WHAT IS WRONG WITH ME? I'M FALLING APART ESPECIALLY WITH NO SLEEP!!! PLEASE HELP ME!!!!
