Restless Leg Syndrom

For years I would often feel that my legs were so uncomfortable that I would often be crossing and uncrossing my legs, or stretching them. Fortunately, this never interfered with my sleep. I think I had restless leg syndrome. The symptoms seemed to match what was listed in the various drug commercials.

I noticed the other day that my legs have been very calm in the evening. I can't remember the last time my legs were restless. I think that my new daily regimen of treadmill walking and pool walking have helped. It certainly hasn't hurt.

I'm so glad I never went to a doctor about this. He probably would have just prescribed pills. All it took was some exercise to make my legs as tired as the rest of me.

Huh. That's almost the opposite of what I posted today.
