Restless Leg Syndrome diagnosis. How have you dealt with it?

Hello...I've had RLS since my early 50's and I am now 77. Currently I'm taking Ropinerole (Requip) which helps somewhat. However, I notice that if I have something a bit salty for my supper, RLS gets worse. I know my body needs the salt but I try to stay away from it toward the end of the day. Has anyone else noticed this salt affect?

I took Ropinerole for about 8 years. It became ineffective for me so I now take Prampexole 3 mg a day.
RLS is a horrible! I have not noticed a relationship with salt.
