Does anyone out there have severe restless leg syndrome? Medication no longer works-what is left?
Four years ago a car accident left me with a concussion, no memory for months, and restless leg set in soon afterward. Medications helped at first, but now nothing helps. I cannot sleep at night nor can I lay down during the day and sometimes I can't even sit still without kicking, or jerking my arms and hands! I had a heart attack and surgery 6 months ago and not being able to rest from restless leg is affecting all that I do. The medication is expensive, and at this point useless. I am desperate for sleep and have taken prescription sleeping pills that also don't work. Is there someone out there with some answers. HELP

Tonic water has non medical doses of quinine in it, and a glass an hour or two before bed might help. The FDA has recently taken medicines containing quinine off of the market, but a quick web search of the keywords "quinine tonic water safety" reassured me that the levels of quinine were safe. It's inexpensive and easy, anyway. You'll probably see an improvement the first night, though it might take a couple of days. It's an old-time cure that has worked wonders for me.

The symptoms of RLS are caused by a spirit (a ghost). Upon consciously realizing this, you will be half way to getting some rest.
Try conversing with it using your thoughts, and you will hear its responses in your mind as if they were your thoughts (telepathy). Start by thinking, "hello, can you hear me?"
