I got neurontin for the RLS and it works and is non addictive but you have to have a prescription for it.  I have never used the net to get meds not sure if it is legal to order it or if you can.  BUT it works for me.  I still have RLS at times I only take the neurontin if I need it because it messes with my emotions
GOOD LUCK and hang in there.

Hi..

I agree with Naughty on this one...probaly bs.  I used to watch my thigh muscles jump on their own...fascinating stuff.  Can you work out now?  I found that exercise helps along with hot showers and/or baths.

ask a person who does reflexology.  Most are little Chinese women who actually know quite a bit.......:-)

Nauty................I doubt they do anything.  Any info-commercial that offers to double your order if you call now........I have found to be ****.  Also, they offer them free for life after the first purchase.......I am the skeptic, so what do I know.

I used them a month or so ago but not for drug detox. I just used them to detox in general. I personally didn't notice any difference after using them for 2 weeks.

I used those hyland OTC resful legs and it seemed to help a bit I wasn't about to scream and pull my hair out just wanted to scream. LOL Serious they did seem to help a bit. I think this is just something to be dealt with in the first few weeks of wt. It is the price we have to pay for using and the price if we want to be clean. I still think no matter how crazy I thought I was going it was a small price to pay for the years of abuse and whatever releif I gained from using and abusing.

I am trying to do some research on the detox patches, but all I am coming up with is people selling the stuff, so please keep us posted.  We would all like to find something natural that would help us to feel better.

Let me know if it works for you because it is 2 weeks for me and I also have terrible RLS and my hands are constantly shaking.  I look as if I have Parkinson's or something.

i tried them, but don't know if they helped much.  i thought they made it easier, but could have been the placebo effect.

No but I saw that on the TV the other day and laughed but my husband read somewhere that they are really good.  I would do some research online and see what you can find out before you purchase anything though.
