Hi, Melodie. I am fairly new to this site, and have had some problems keeping
up with it, since my teenagers need the computer after school most days. I will
add you to my prayer list. It has to be hard to deal with things yourself, as a
widow, and take care of your children. I depend on my family for much since my
surgery.

********** Hi Cindy. I was diagnosed two years ago
but all my life thought
it was normal to have this. I have it very mild
compare to most that post
here
so you don't hear much from me. I keep up on the
posts so I am aware of
what
is being done for us. Mine usually kicks in about 3
to 4 times a year. It
lasts a couple of days and for the next few weeks my
legs are weird but I do

get to sleep after the first few nights. I also have
PLMD that comes and
goes
when it wants. I am usually just falling asleep when
I get a complete body
jerk and I feel like my whole body jumps off the bed.
That is scary and now
that
I know what it is I deal better with it. Let me know
a little about you and

how you realized you had RLS? I figured out I had it
when my doctor sent
out
a news letter on RLS and how many don't know what it
is and that they have
it.
I remember reading it and saying wow I have had this
all my life and never
mentioned it to a doctor as I thought it was normal
and just me doing
something
I was not supposed to do. I have figured out a few
things though. When I
eat strawberries, watermelon, marshmallows, corn,
papaya, mango and a lot of

salt. (I took salt out my diet years ago as I had a
problem with it) I
always
have an attack that night. I have taken all those
foods out of my diet and
my
salt is only what occurs naturally or very limited.
IM going on the theory
that
our enzymes are affected and then we have an attack?
I know if it was that
easy we would have a cure for RLS but it works for me
cutting out those
foods
that make me have an attack. It took me awhile to
figure them out but I
watched everything that went into my mouth and saw
when my attacks happened.
Well,
enough of me. Let me know about you.
Paula in Massachusetts RLS/PLMD
