I just upped the dose of ropinirole and it has helped tremendously. I now take 1.5 mg at night. I was not totally aware that I had restless limb syndrome until I had a sleep study done. My feet were moving over 90% of the night which kept my brain speeding also!! No wonder I was so tired all the time....one would have hoped I had lost weight moving all that much but no such luck! Occasionally I will get restless legs with the jerking but not really a problem. I find it helps to rub Two Old Goats Essential Oils Lotion on the bottom of my feet also. It has a mix of different things....got it from Amazon.

Restless legs is such a nasty thing. I searched all over online for different solutions and the only thing that actually worked for me was upping my water intake and eating bananas. I guess I needed more potassium (who knew lol) Hope you get some relief. Hugs <3
