Magnesium at bedtime, I find the fizzy soluble one works well.

It can act on the bowels JaneinPen

What with everything else I don't want bowel issues too CLKD!!! How much do you take Cassie and have you been okay?

[babyjane]

I had to stop a magnesium supplement as it did strange things to me, and not just my bowels.  I suspect I didn't really need it and my body reacted to it.

Bananas work for me too.  If I run out of them my legs take on a life of their own, especially at night 

[CLKD]

How about dried banana to see if that would work? 

[babyjane]

Oh I used to love those dried banana chips until I chipped a tooth with one and set off my TMJ

[babyjane]

it doesn't take much! 

[cubagirl]

Think you can buy chewy ones babyjane, they might help.

[CLKD]

Wouldn't those remove fillings ? 

[cubagirl]

Probably, lose, lose no matter what. I love banana chips.

[robotwars]

I use magnesium oil, which I just rub into my legs an hour before bed, seems to work.....

[CLKD]

That's good, never thought to try that - will bear it in mind!

Lots of info and advice on this site https://rls-uk.org/  There are medications you can have if the syndrome is really getting you down.  It's always worth getting your iron levels checked too as low iron can cause RLS
