Bi-lateral Knee Replacement And Restless Legs Posted: 08-10-04 17:59pm
Here is what happened:
on april 15, 2004, I had both of my knees
replaced. I had as full range of motion
as you can achieve, so the pt people
decided to ramp up my physical therapy.
I also have fibromyalgia, and in the past
have experienced restless legs before.
After that (which ended up being my last
therapy session because I had to quit)
session, my restless legs kicked in and I
have been miserable for the past 6 weeks.
And I am taking oxycodone, klonipin, and
a few other drugs. Does anyone have any
more suggestions on what to do? I have
researched this and am at my wits end!
Thanks, diane

I think you need iron after surgery you
were brave getting both done togather but
I think if you take iron and drink decaff
you will see improvement mine are 7/24 so
know what you are going through

I was reading your posting because you
wrote about bi-lateral knee replacements
and I am getting mine on 1-31-05. I
noticed you are having problems with
fibromyalgia. I have a company that has
patented a succsessful treatment for fibro
that we sell through physicians. Please
