You know, how they're always adpertizing it on tv, right? Well, my legs are really restless at night, like now. I always get up and walk around the house at least once, maybe twice, if I haven't done my exercise for the week. I find it very hard to sleep without reading a book, watching tv or doing some exercise.
If I do, is it serious? I don't want to take the stupid requip they offer. (*Sighs*)
I hate pills, and if it's not serious...
Advice?

Well actually I am not a doctor but I used to have the same problem......all I did was just try to stay of your legs for like about a week or two. I know it sounds like a long time for you not to work out, but thats probably the reason why your legs keep hurting you. If your always on them you need to give your legs and feet some rest.............. but I hope you get better and I hope this advise works for you cause it worked for me!!!!!!

If your exercising near bed time that is the problem try to get all your exercise in early so your body can wind down and relax properly . That should help some , if it continues see a doctor about it. It's not a serious condition but perhaps a doctor may consider it a symptom of something else.

RLS actually occurs when you are sleeping not when you are sitting around. A lot of times people don't even realize that they have this - others observe them kicking around. Staying still when awake is not related to RLS

Stop using artificial sweeteners that contain aspartame. That is supposed to be one of the side effects. Also, try massaging your legs before you go to sleep.
