Funny I should SEE this thread right now. I USED to have terrible RLS but not so much recently. Just a couple nights ago though, I DID have entire body RLS IF there is such a thing. I find if I do too much that day ie running up and down 5 flights of stairs carrying bags or heavy laundry etc THEN that night I will have a problem BUT IF I try to strech out the muscles in back of my knees that helps alot to stop the RLS AND if I get too warm, that'll bring it on too especially right after I get into bed for the night.
IF I don't drink an extra quart of water a day too FOR SURE I will have RLS that night, it NEVER fails. All these muscle spasms are brought on by dehydration, contraction and fatigue.
Since I don't like or want to be taking medications I try to figure out what I am doing to contribute to the problem.
Muscles are funny things. You don't treat them right and they REBEL!!!!
