Guest guest Posted March 12, 1999 Report Share Posted March 12, 1999 Hi, I'm new around here. So new that I hit the reply button from the digest and that's why you all got copies the other day. Sorry. Except of course for who saw it as comedy! A very mild case of RLS really bloomed on me recently after taking paxil. I've been doing some serious nightwalking for months now. Lost a part time job on account of it today. No worries. It were not the biggest of deals. Nothing much helps me with sleeping. I am now at least three hours post dose of Ambien. but here I am typing away. Almost coherently. Tried Halcion this afternoon. that did nothing. Ativan is a total joke. When I tired that it would grog me out nicely but then about 45 minutes just as I thought ooh mayb i'm going to make it this time... jumpity jump. The bummer of that aside from the obvious is that then I'm too groggy to read or do much of anything. I've been having short term memory loss from lack of sleep and some nutritional deficiencies. It's been interesting to read some descriptions of trying to feel what therls is. I have always described it as being electrical. Never would say crawly. I quit the Paxil cold turkey five days ago and seems that is really aggravating the RLS. It'll be ok if once I finally have the Paxil out of my system the rls returns to it's pre paxil milder form. Well I'm gonna give the zzzz's another go here at 2am RMT Vail,CO Kathleen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
