Hydro WD

Since I'm new to these WD I'm just so curious as to what I'm feeling.
I was just sitting on the toilet and I couldn't feel my right leg it just started feeling like a million needles were poking it  mostly my foot and my shin. Is this the RLS?!

lol coming from someone that would take any pill they can get their hands on, the only thing i look at is 5, 7.5, or 10, it dont really matter the brand, some might be a little better, but all in how much you take a day, when i was active in my pain pill addiction id take whatever i could get my hands on, all withdrawals are about the same just some longer than others, your doing GREAT though, keep it up your almost through the worst of it!!

Restless Legs presents itself in many forms.  As soon as some people relax they get a constant urge to move their arms or legs, creepy crawlies, pins and needles, a deep ache, burning sensations, shin pain, etc.   The Magnesium and Potassium helps with this.   Immodium will also help take the edge of it as well.   I found that going for a walk helped alot!

Oh by the way if you do wake up with a calve cramp you have to stretch it out, with your leg out straight reach with your hand and pull your toes back, it hurts like a MFer, but its the only way to uncramp it that ive found, hopefully this doesnt happen to you, its the worst way ive ever been woke up, their is some over the counter stuff for RLS that might help

yes it could be pins and needles, jerking movements ,a  creepy crawly feeling. it is best to move around when it happens. hot baths with Epsom salts, eating bananas, magnesium/potassium supplements all help.

yes your legs do all kinds of funky crap, ive woke up with a charlie horse in the middle of the night, my whole calve muscle was in a ball it hurt so bad, but my legs constantly ache and feel like they want me too walk or like ive been on my feet too long, eat a banana it will help alot!!
