What Is Restless Leg Syndrome?

This is something I have been dealing with for the past 30-plus years. I thought this was something normal that happens to everyone.

I was talking to my dietitian and this subject came up. I used to think it was because I didn't drink enough water. They would hurt so bad that 2 days later I could still feel the effects.

None of my healthcare team has ever brought this up. It will be at the top of my list for my next doctor appointments.

Has anyone ever experienced this? Do you do anything special to combat the pain? We would love to hear from you.

  1. At my last doctor's appointment, I asked my doctor about this again. She said she might be able to correct this by giving me an iron supplement pill. I have been on this pill for a few weeks and it seems to be helping. Has anyone else experienced restless leg syndrome? We would like to hear from you. Diane (Team Member)
