Kerry/Marianna/ Fibromyalgia, RESTLESS LEG SYNDROME & pain

[Guest guest]

My doctor explained it to me...lactic acid builds up in the muscle and causes the pain. I too was on all kinds of Rx's, but found cheap aspirins and hot hot baths do the trick for me. Also, just thinking about it, I put on those white stretchy surgical hose one night and that helped a great deal.

I am writing in response to Kerry who is also suffering from fibro. I have suffered from extreme RLS since childhood & has certainly turned my life up-side down. I would not wish this on any one. I finally could not cope any longer & began taking prescription drugs so that I could sleep. This led to a nightmare of complications: fibromyalgia, deep depression, paranoia, skin rashes, ad naseum. Have seen several neurologists & have tried different drug therapies. They do stop the whole body restlessnes, but, in turn cause so many more complications.Have just decided to "live" with the RLS, since the other side of the coin is no better, only different. I recently came accross an article that stated that totally removing all salt from the diet would bring relief. Have been doing this & do seem to feel a tad better. Have worked with Bach Flower remedies & do feel that they assist. You would have to determine your own "remedy" depending on your own difficulty.If any one has any suggestions would love to know about them. Thanks for reading this long passage.Marianna********************************************* WWW.PEACEFULMIND.COM Sponsors Alternative Answers-HEALING NATURALLY- this is the premise of HOLISTIC HEALTH.

Sheri,

 

Thanks so much for the ideas. I'll check out the white surgical

hose, my cousin works in that industry. Maybe he can get me a pair

for free. As for the aspirin, it only upsets my stomach and does

nothing for the pain. I enjoy my hot hot baths with sea sals or

milk salt. This allows me a pretty decent nights sleep.

 

Take care and soldier on!!
