Follow-Up: I have been reading cases of RLS,and I'm glad I did. I've had this for quite sometime, it's really gotten worse since menapause. Sleeping is also a big problem. so now at night it' been the pits. Finally went to the doctor, found out that RLS,has inherited factors. I have tried eveything from Valrin root tea,pills, you name it doesn't work for me. I have used extra stength excerdin with very little relief,hot baths,some relief. I'm now on clonazepan,this is all I've found right now that has worked. It is a narcotic and must be taken with caution. Right now thats all I've found, but will keep looking,
