Knee pressure........Lynn/Connie

[Guest guest]

Hey, Lynn.......

I can't tell you how many times I have piled books or other heavy things on

top of my legs, hoping to quell the pangs of RLS. For a few moments there

would be blessed relief.......then my body would jump with a seizure so

strong, everything would go flying!

Some of the earliest testing on people with RLS required them to lie in bed

with their legs strapped down, so that every movement was

recorded........also, the reactions to not being able to move. It's been so

long ago that I read this, I can't remember all of the particulars. I only

know that it was included in information that I received from the National

Institute of Health when I requested any and all printed material on the

subject. I think I will try to drag my old files out and re-read some of this

stuff.

Thank you for the reminder..........:-)
