It's been awhile since I posted a message about getting RLS. I now believe it was a prescribed medication that I was taking for inflammation of the joints that was causing my RLS. Since that last post 1999, I had a back fusion of the L4/L5 area with screws and rods to get me back to a walking condition without to much pain. It takes me a lot longer to get going in the morning or after sitting for awhile. I still use Vicoden to help me reduce the pain and stiffness with my new bonic back.
Just wanted to pass this information along that maybe if your using some prescribed med's..maybe it's med that might
be elevating the problem. I pray that all of you RLS's ppl find relief and get a good night's sleep. God Bless to all !
I know your pain. Tony
