Guest guest Posted December 2, 1998 Report Share Posted December 2, 1998 June and all: Well, I guess they went back through their old contact files, as I had volunteered to be a test subject in the RLS Research at NIH back in March of this year. Dr. Bara-Jimenez called me tonight, interviewed me and placed me on the schedule to make the trip up there on Dec. 16-18. I feel kind of honored that he wants me to partake in the research going on with RLS/PLMD. If I can shed any light or do anything that will help these doctors and researchers find a rhyme, reason and/or cure for this disorder, then it's worth the trip up there for the testing. Way to go, June, guess you started something here.....
