I had RLS since I was a kid and there was no name for it. Several years after menopause, it stopped, unless I take certains meds, SSRIs, anticholinergics, antidopaminergics, zofran, tramadol, reglan, type drugs, which doesn't leave me with much. Every now and then it flares up for a few days for no reason like it did when I was a kid. Around the time I was 40, it kicked in so bad it was every night from 7pm until 4am. I used Mirapex and it worked. I have small fiber neuropathy with sensory, autonomic and motor issues.
