I could barely stay awake. I take tramadol now for the past 4 years. 50 mg three times a day. The best thing about it is you don't have to wait for it to build up. Instant relief! Rls is debilitating and for me when not treated affects my mental state so badly! I hope you find relief!

No matter how small, a positive change deserves to be celebrated!
My pdoc won't give me a narcotic. I can only have a small dose of Xanax as needed. I'm an alcoholic so it's too much of a risk.
