I've heard also that aluminum does this also? It either blocks B1 or not I really don't know however this info was from a fairly reliable source as well However, thank you for the information again I didn't know about the B1

I have had RLS for most of my adult life, (I am almost 73) and I have found that there are 2 things in my diet that will trigger it big time, too much salt, and too much sugar especially after 6PM. Antihistamines are problematic also. B1 does help and I take 500 mgs of magnesium before bed…I am currently trying this new Restful Legs PM that is supposed to help RLS, the jury is still out on that one. I have been to the edge of the cliff at times and have often gotten up and marched in place for hours trying to relieve it, I sometimes get it in my arms and you feel like you just want to jump out of your skin. People who have never experienced this cannot understand, but it is real and they still don’t really know what causes it. I like reading the comments and I very much appreciate this video. The exercises are great.

No one can understand the pain and extreme stress of severe RLS such as what some people like myself experience with multiple episodes per day, unless they too, are sufferers. If I didn’t have the amount of relief I do get from medications, I honestly would not want to live. Many people have told me they also have RLS, but they don’t. They have PLM, Periodic Limb Movement, which is entirely different, but still annoying and disruptive. This video is very helpful, and I will try these specific exercises.

I've have had Restless Legs for 67 years and I can tell you. When it occurred mostly laying down it was due to cool air and/or ceiling air on my legs. I MUST to get out of bed and walk. I keep a light pillow over my calves and keep them warm, when that doesn't work and they cramp so bad I have to walk it off, I take Magnesium 400gm 1 pill and it take up to 30 minutes, then I am good. I do take Requip/Ropinirole, which absolutely works when it will not stop, but I hate taken drugs and am not on any medication at all. Support knee high socks works well when you have to walk alot. I played Semi-Pro Softball in my younger years and was always on the move. I do eat the right foods but cold and cold air hurts me most, just saying.

It is a carbonated drink normally used to make mixed drinks like gin and tonic. You can find ot at the grocery, Walmart with the other drink mizers like Margherita or Bloody Mary Mixes. Just make sure the tonic water says "with quinine"...because some are made without it now. Quinine is the active ingredient that makes it work for RLS.

Hi Cherie, are you on the Standard Amerian Diet or Vegan diet?

Great video! I’ve had RLS for about five years now and have to take prescription meds which don’t work if I take them right before bed. So I take them a couple of hours ahead of time and also potassium supplements and that cocktail works 75% of the time. I’ll definitely try this oil or the cream that someone else has suggested in the comments to avoid the itchiness. Unfortunately, I also get RLS in my arms, and I’m not sure which is worse because sometimes I just want to throw my arms against the wall. Benadryl can definitely aggravate RLS in my system. I appreciate all the comments and how all of you have figured out how to live with this and I’m sure some of you dread going to sleep at night as I do or even when you relax to watch TV for a few hours in the laying down position without having the interference of RLS.

Yeah same, not painful as such, more of a mental pain as you're supposed to cease movement and relax at sleep time n with rls the more you do try to relax the more it will drive you crazy. I imagine that it would be similar to a symptom that addicts withdrawing off drugs would feel. Like a ticklish feeling in your legs n sometimes arms. Like a thousand ants crawling around your body. I feel bad for my partner sleeping next to me as often ill have the entire bed shaking, as my leg HAS to shake - its not voluntarily- you still have to put the work in n yes it gets tiring, but you'd rather it feel tired than that tickle feeling n when it is also in your arms, that's even worse. I bought a vibrating seat cover, I lay on that in bed n it helps, or I use a massage gun n keep it vibrating on the trigger spots, keep it on there until that tickle feeling goes, it enhances the yuk tickle feeling at first but you feel it start to not tickle as much after a minute or 2. Keep it massaging all around the pin points for about 5 or 10 mins - sometimes longer - but it's so worth it, as you'll find afterwards you no longer have it. It's so relieving by that point, as you just want to sleep. Desperate measures are no to no end. I am anemic n have low iron, n I think that is linked with rls. I first had it in a the last few weeks of my 3rd pregnancy, which went after baby was born. Then 10 years later, ( and a couple of pregnancies without it) which was 5 years ago it started again just out of the blue.

I take an epsom salt bath every night with a little baking soda. Epsom salt brings magnesium into the body through the skin. I sleep so much better after these relaxing baths!

This is what i need, Thank you, one time i experience calves cramps at night.

Hope the exercises help, and please give us an update.

I increased magnesium and do these exercises! I also lotion my feet and wear plastic booties for awhile to help with that! I feel like these could improve my symptoms! Thank you.

You're the best yes it does help

Thank you. I will definitely be trying these. Sometimes my restless legs go next level and become "restless shoulders". I thought RLS was bad but, when the shoulders start it's absolutely hellish. I have magnesium spray but only used it a couple of times as it did irritate my skin, now l know that's normal and will stop, I'll start using it again. When you mentioned the B vitamins, l paused the video and made myself some Vegemite on toast, so l'm already looking forward to some better sleep.

I get it in my right leg and right arm . It's excruciating. I just have to stay up until I pass out usually around 5am...now my day is stuffed. Tramadole is instant relief I've found but doctors don't really like prescribing it.

@@tempershot6311 Ugh. We sound like twins! I hate it when l see the sun rising on a sleepless night cos, like you, l know my day is shot. I take slow release tramadol 12 hourly. It's not great but, it helps (with pain not RLS) and l find the side effects seem less than the short acting stuff. I'm grateful to have found a Dr that believes me.

@nikiTricoteuse I saw a doctor this morning 530am at a 24hr clinic. He was a good man that believed me too, gave me Tram and Diazipam. I slept till 2pm, day gone. I've booked in for blood tests etc because there must be an underlying problem causing it right? It's so hard to describe the feeling to people hey.

@@tempershot6311 I hope you have found someone who can help. Having an "invisibile injury" can be so frustrating. It's 3.40am here and I've not managed to sleep yet. I had hoped to sleep cos l had a rough night last night - realised when l went to take my tramadol this morning that l had some how missed taking it last night - still at least that explained the rough night. Good luck for the blood tests too.

Great info! Thank you! Restless legs can be a big pain with fibromyalgia. I take 500mg magnesium every day, but sometimes it upsets my stomach. I'd much rather try the magnesium oil.

I also have fibro. I have found that gel caps are more tummy friendly than pills or caplets. I also find magnesium glycinate more tummy friendly than any of the other varieties. It is also supposed to be among the best for uptake. I get PURE brand, which has 120 mg per gel cap, so you could spread your dose out. Also, taking with food helps. Maybe one gelcap at each meal and one at bedtime with a snack would work for you. Epsom salts is magnesium in readily absorbable form. I don't like baths, so I plug the drain and chuck some in the tub so I'm standing in it while I shower.

Cool hacks tutorial video for restless leg ! 😊👍

Thank you just started with this condition, it’s terrible feeling just ruin your night sleep, restless syndrome is very appropriate, cause that’s what it is, just can’t keep your legs still. Thank you for your recommendations.

I haven't taken magnesium in a long time and boy am I noticing pain in my legs at night. All those exercises were fantastic and I will be using them daily.

Thank you. Was looking for help with this and you post it ! Had the worst bout of this at 3 am. Not sure but the weather just changed to rainy and it seems to trigger it for me. Also had sugar last nite in the form of home made peanut brittle. Don't do it! Could have been the trigger for me.

Thanks Genius!!

Thanks for this with solid exercises to try. Will report back after doing these. Trying to get off of meds prescribed for rls.

Thank you! I have been taking medication for restless leg for years. I'm going to give this a try and get off the darn medicine!

I’ve have a pretty bad case of RLS ever since being diagnosed with MS back in February. I was also diagnosed with diabetes, so I drastically changed my diet and went keto to address both, but I didn’t know until recently that I needed to supplement with electrolytes. I think it’s helping somewhat, but at the same time I do still have a leg aching that I think is stemming from the MS and doesn’t go away completely….and it gets worse at night just like with RLS. I’ll definitely try these exercise….I’ve been doing my own version of leg stretching while laying in bed, but not these specific ones. At this point I’ll try just about anything! Lol

Maybe consider if you have Histamine Intolerance or Oxalate Sensitivity. Both are known to cause RLS, and both are pretty easy to check if you have them by going on a restrictive diet for a week or two and seeing if your symptoms change. And have you heard of Low Dose Naltrexone for MS? Let me know if you need more information about any of these things as I know the best websites. Best to you.

@@Maggie-zr2ow Thank you ☺ I did drastically change my diet…I went keto the minute I was diagnosed with both MS and diabetes. After 3 months, I’m off all the diabetic meds they threw at me and am no longer in the diabetic range, which is great. Of course I’ll still have to be mindful of that for the rest of my life, but as of right now, the diabetes is in check. I’m considering going carnivore for at least 30 days to see if that helps with symptoms. I believe the RLS is directly related to the MS because it’s only in one leg, which is the one leg that went fully numb on me (which led to my diagnosis). I did hear of LDN early on in my research….I discovered it conflicted with something else that I already take, which ironically sort of helps with my RLS, so I can’t take that.

@@mickeyoshea2035 Hi! Qigong is a method of practice that cultivates various skills and beneficial effects. Each practice does something different, so I hesitate to generalize too much (like with any form of exercise). Basically, one of the most foundational methods is through a form of meditation that occurs in a standing position. This can encourage relaxation, benefit circulation, and adjust postural and joint imbalances. This was incredibly helpful to me in dozens of ways. I have some videos on my own channel about the practice. I hope that you find relief from your discomforts and then share the success with your community! 💙

Thank you 🙏

I got restless leg, and found out my blood showed anemic. Without further testing, doc wasn't sure which anemia I was suffering. Decided to take a multivitamin with low iron. Found later with another specialist that I either needed more iron or a needed more vitamin B. I inadvertently fixed my own restless leg syndrome because my multivitamin have iron in it. Lucky happenstance. I also later added multi sublingual Vit B complex for energy. Restless leg is a horrible feeling.

Same for me! I had severe RLS for many years and dreaded going to bed at night. I came across a study by the Mayo Clinic recommending iron and now take one a day. It is now much less frequent and much less severe.

Thank you i ll try it 👍💯
