Starting to feel restless

[Waiting4myprincess]

Well, I am starting to get the restlessness that everyone has talked about. Why is it that it happens only when you are laying down or trying to relax?? Is there anything that I can take to help with that? Especially at night, since I have to be up and around in the morning for my daughter???

i actually took 2 10 mg flexerils at nite and it helped some.  theyare not very strong.  the epsom salt was very helpful.

I agree with mimi1313, the hot baths helped my rls so much. The hotter, the better. I would have a bath and then get another a couple of hours later, i'm not saying this is practical as you have a young child but try it. It really does help to an extent. Keep telling yourself you can do this!

Hot baths with Epsom salts and wrapping your legs in ace bandages really help. I took Flexeril (10mg) and It helped somewhat. Good luck!

I have Flexeril 10 MG's that was prescribed to me. Will that help with RLS? Is 10 MG's pretty strong? Please let me know.

l-theaine, calcium magnesium, potassium or bananas, melatonin for sleep with valerian root, passion flower and skull cap. They all helped me a ton, if i had to pick one or two, melatonin and l-theanine.
