Iron nor magnesium helped me...and after a year and moving my new doctor said stop the extra iron as not helping. I still take the magnesium but again no relief.

I have RLS and PILM which are controlled by 2000 IU of Vitamin D3 every night for the RLS and as needed, 200 mg gabapentin at night. Medications such as Benadryl and Ambien can trigger RLS and PILM -- perhaps other medications as well. For RLS, for me, it is an uncontrollable urge to move the limb. For PILM, the limb just moves, such as kicks out -- not an urge but an involuntary movement.

I don't know if your symptoms are connected to either RLS or PILM. Maybe a neurologist could shed some light on this for you.
