Try drinking Tonic Water....my Mayo doctor suggested a "gin and tonic<br>without the gin"! The quinine in the tonic water WILL take the jitters away<br>from the restless leg syndrome. I think that the tonic water tastes bitter,<br>so I mix it with crushed ice and a little fruit juice, such as cherry juice<br>or orange juice. It is AMAZING how much it helps after drinking a glass<br>every day. I use regular, not diet, tonic water. Best wishes!<br>

I have RLS and it’s mostly every night. I’ve had 6 back surgeries and permanent nerve damage. I was wondering if this was the reason. But thinking about it, this condition started being more permanent as I started aging. I’m now 64. My Dr. Once told me about tonic water, but I hate the taste and I don’t drink. So I found Quinine on Amazon. I put a few drops into my water cup that I drink during the night and it seems to help most of the time. I must have tried just about everything else and this seems to be about the best yet. If you do it on a regular basis, it seems to have help for me about 80 % of the time. I also take a potassium tablet every so often when I need an extra push. I drink lots of water during the course of a day, and the combo of both help.

I got the same thing but I have asthma and taking NUCALA shots every thirty days but also I have a lower disk that is worn out on one side and it pinches my nerve too plus other problems I just cannot get used to my BIPAP at all and that does not help matters
