@drwass2 Hi, for me compression stockings help or rather work one day but not the next. I still use them as they help...sometimes they just bug me so take them off and don't wear them for a few days or weeks, but they do help. My problem is my RLS starts early in the day. Sometimes my arms will bother me but not daily like my legs. Have discovered that if you don't move enough, it can trigger RLS, but you can move too much. Support socks work one day but not the next. Heat helps sometimes etc...so far, I've tried most everything that I have read in the forum here other than iron infusion and Nidra device. I have tried many medications over the years but have a reaction to them all.

@3dogs have you tried hamstring stretches right before bedtime and when you wake up? It helped me, I hope you'll try it if you haven't already. The key is to be consistent. Everything we try doesn't work immediately, but with repetitious consistency every day it may start to work. I'm sorry for your problem. I wish you well.
