Guest guest Posted December 8, 1998 Report Share Posted December 8, 1998 Hi all; I just spoke with my new Dr. and thought I would share what we are going to try. He is leaving my meds as they are for now. He wants to try to manage this with other methods first. (your going to like this Jill!!!) He wants me to get a good exercise program going, walking, treadmill, what ever I choose, but he want a good workout every day, cold or not. He also, here you go Jill, wants me to keep mentally active, especially in the evening, and NOT think about RLS/PLMD, ninetendo, computer, needlepoint, whatever, just keep the ole mental juices flowing.... Also stretching like yoga or tai chi, but getting good stretches in the legs... I was glad that he had read Dr. 's report, and is getting ready to read something from the Hopkins hospital. I go back in two weeks, or sooner, if I am not doing better. So we will see, I am actually kind of pleased with this, as I at least feel I am trying to get control of my own life (yes, Jill, the ole control thing again!!! LOL ), and doing something besides vegetate on medications. Wish me luck, I may need it.....
