RLS can be a real pain in the butt. Just can't seem to settle down. I have not had it in awhil but, there were nights I had to get up and walk around for hours without sleep. I am just glad they found a drug that can help this menis. I am so glad you had it looked into. I had a funny feeling that is what it might be. Med should help. Just make sure you keep doc up to date on how it is working.
LOL...You asked how old I am. Well, my age is in my profile. Let's say this much. I have been through enough health problems, I feel sometimes I am taking it on for the whole U.S. But, I take every day as it comes with a positive attitude and go from there. Having MS, I do have my bad days, but opted not to take any MS meds.
I really am happy you are listening to you body and getting things taken care of. We only have one body and have to try and keep it as healthy as possible. Unfortunalty, sometimes that means with the help of some medications.
I wish you the very best and do keep us up-dated on how you are doing.
Well Wishes,
MsSky
