need to sleep
So I'm on day 6 of my herion detox i feel pretty good physically but the restless leg syndrome is making it next to impossiblw to sleep I'm just wondering if others have had this problem it doesn't seem to b letting up at all.also does anybody have any remedies for it other than the obvious. I don't want to relapse but I feel its gonna happen if I don't get any sleep.

Congrats on day 6! I don't know if it will help you, but at times I actually use something like Bengay, Biofreeze or something like that on my on my legs to deal with the RLS. I've dealt with the RLS on and off for many years, so I know it's very annoying!! I hope you get some sleep!
Hi Derek
I think RLS is pretty common in some kinds of withdrawal.
I have no personal experience of withdrawal RLS tho.
I'm sure others here have dealt with this issue.
