How do you cope with RLS? I've had it for
more than 30 years, and there seems to be
very little help for us sufferers.

Out of curiosity, what have you tried to reduce/illiminate it? I have had restless legs since 2007 and have also tried a lot. Currently, I am taking Gabapentin and it seems to be helping a lot.

I take Pramipexole, and it helps some, but the strength
of the medicine is starting to lessen.

Have you tried putting Vicks on your legs? Sounds crazy, but it works. I read this tip in Terry Wahls’s book, The Wahls Protocol. I also suffer from occasional restless legs, but the Vicks takes it away. Messy, but worth it, and no pills!

I have had RLS for as long as I can remember. I now take requip or ropinerole,. It helps a lot!!¿!!!

Hi @rjjb, I moved your post to the RLS discussion that you posted to before. I did this so you can connect with all the people suffering with the same problem.
What medicines have you tried already and what was the duration you were on them?
