I too have RLS, but mine is not only my legs but my arms too. I have bouts of my arms punching out on their own. It's horrilbe when the legs (or arms too in my case) start when you are juuuusssttt about to fall asleep. My mom was the representative for the RLS Foundation for the entire state of New Mexico (she has the legs really bad). She has gone through the gamet of all the drugs, even on Vicodin and morphine for a while. The best thing we have found is Gabapentin. We have gotten to a high dosage, but it helps a lot. Talk to your dr to see if that would be something that may help you too.
Good luck and WANDER ON
