Paul,

I felt same way but I'm still not totally sold on RLS being my only problem with my leg movement. I move them all day long, jiggling as they go. I get told to quit it all the time even by people I don't know. I finally have figured if you don't like it then don't watch. I'm sure one of these days the docs will figure out the daytime jitters my legs have. Until then, on I jiggle..... :)

So what's next now that you know? Are you going to seek some treatment or continue to let it drive you bananas. A neurologist would be the man to start with then he may refer you to sleep specialist. Of course some insurance companies will insist you see your regular physician for a referral first. Luckily my sleep specialist is also my neurologist. I've heard sometimes they aren't necessarily neurologists, which doesn't make much sense to me. Anyway, good luck and let us know how it goes.

Peaceful and nonrestless sleep to you!
Lynne
