Hey my brother!!
The RLS will get worse for a while after gettin off the opiates. I last took opiates Jan 3, 2007, and just now are my legs starting to not be as sensitive. It seems that at night they are worse too. And it isnt all in your head, for some reason nights are worse.
Believe it or not, the opiates were actually helping me. But like you I kept being labeled a drug seeking addict, very annoying to say the least. If you have any amiltriptalyne (sp), that helps with RLS and letting you get some sleep.
I thought there is a resemblance there to Anna's baby!
