I am new here and I have found relief

I have found relief. With a wellness oil. I have had restless leg as long as I can remember. I would never sleep and walked around like a zombie. I could not work for too long at a time because I did my best sleeping in the early morning so I couldn't wake up for work. No doctor could tell me what was wrong because I described it as bugs crawling in my leg. Then about 8 years ago they told me what it was. I had many symptoms. Bugs crawling, pain, cramps, and it looked like I was having seizures the way my legs shook. My muscles have even popped where I could see them doing so. It looked like my legs were dancing. I grew up not taking medication for anything so it was hard for me to take anything but I definitely needed relief from it. I have taken Sinement, Klonpin, Requip, Ultram to only have a short relief on my legs but many side effects. So I weined myself off the meds. I found this wellness oil that worked the first night. I don't need it every night anymore. I have no side effects and I can get back doing everyday things because I can sleep at night. I really don't understand how people live with this. I have tried everything I can think of. I use to sit it my hot tub for hours and nobody could understand why.

" Hi, i am new to this site and from the uk.
was very interested to hear about this il and i am defintely going to try it.
just to add, i dont drink wine, but if do go out and take in alcohol, it always seems so much worse.
i cant be sure whether its the alcohol or the shoes i wear.
was wondering if anyone has tried a bag of corks from wine bottles, placed in the bed at night.. this was suggested to me by my doctor, sometimes it works and others it dont. maybe just psychological, but thought ya may want to try in any case.. "

" I don't drink any alcohol. My rls is worse than ever. I've been taking Cabergoline for years but it doesn't work as well as it did, so I'm going back to see the neurologist again. If I'm tired my rls is ten times worse. I ordered some wellness oil but it hasn't arrived yet. I also find if my feet get too hot or I'm sitting in a cramped position, like not enough room for my legs to stretch out, it brings on the rls.
