I have not read your previous posts so am unfamiliar with your history. However, i would like to share that a sleep study diagnosed me with plms and rls and medications did not help.
My plms and rls symptoms disappeared completely after switching blood pressure meds...i experienced noticible symptoms with hydrochlorothiazide and with benicar. My rls was severe while taking benicar. Both my sleep specialist and my primary initially said there was no correlation but they don't despute that i am now symptom free. I suspect that there are other meds out there that aggravate the condition. It may be worth investigating. Good luck!
