Soak in a warm bath if you can for the RLS..........The quicker you can get up and move around and exercise the better.
Hi Jolly, They have an OTC med for RLS called Hylands....you can also get a script for meds just for it. My son got permenant RLS after heroin wd and he gets a script from his doctor. Don't know what else you can take for the potassiun. Maybe you can ask at dialysis. You can get up and start moving around the sooner, the better. Start with slow walks. Take hot baths for the rls. That helps too. Hope this helped. Corey

Hi Jolly, Glad to hear your not doing too bad. I thought that you started today but your on day 2 already. That's great. I'm praying that your gonna have it easy my friend. Godspeed, Corey
congrats jollyman on day 2....hopefully you won't feel any worse than you do now. take care, remember one day at a time...you can do this my friend.
You may just have some mild symptoms.......If so that is even better!!!!! The important thing is you are on day 2. Keep us posted on how you are feeling.......The music is a big help isnt it!!!! Stay strong...........sara
hi,. jolly..
anything is possible but i remember mine started at day two mostly, the first day was basicalle made of fearrr, maybe there is still some opiate in your organism or maybe you are the lucky one whose wds gonna be mild. anyway, i'm sure you gonna cope with them, you are used to physical pain from what i have read, you have already gone thru a lot so i really think that you are going to fight them, whatever wds like the best, sure :)
have no fear of them, the worst to me were this thing with my legs and arms and that i felt so tired, mental and physical but there is also something called hylands (OTC) to help you with the RLS. drink a lot of liquids like green tea or gatorades to replenish the fluids you gonna lose and stay confident cause you could even be the lucky one..:)
