Welcome @bododa, Thanks for sharing the different treatments and challenges you have with restless leg syndrome and small fiber neuropathy. Poor sleep is a challenge indeed. I have small fiber peripheral neuropathy and also have obstructive sleep apnea. A CPAP device helps me but it also provides some challenges of it's own finding the right mask that works for me.

Have you ever had an overnight sleep study?

Thank you @johnbishop! Yes I had an overnight sleep study about 15 yrs ago because my wife complained about me being very restless. I was then diagnosed with PLMD (basically RLS + arms), but not sleep apnea. I still don't have sleep apnea symptoms - "only" restless, hot legs.
