"restless legs"
Hi, I am a 58 year old Swedish male living in Stockholm. I have suffered with restless legs now for 20 or 30 years now. At the age of 17 I had an subarachnoid aneurysm and was given a surgery where my cranium was drilled into and a metal clamp put on the artery at the Circle of Willis.My symptoms are spasmodic twitching of legs at night while sleeping but often at night before going to bed I feel I want to move my legs in order to get rid of the restless feeling, but my legs at this time are not twitching.
I have received Osteopathy and Rolfing for the last year and taken various supplements including magnesium. I do not drink coffee or alcohol. I have a healthy diet and I am a slender build with a sensitive skin and high intellect.
Since doing Osteopathy and Rolfing, the restlessness now includes not just my legs but also my arms. It is like my nerves to these areas have more aliveness and restlessness. It seems in a way worse because it is more sensational, and it is spread out over a larger surface area of the body. Now it comes more often.
I was prescribed by an American Osteopath Adamus at 200c - only one dose, and then was given Thuja also at 200c several months later only one dose.
I welcome any insights you might offer.
Thank you very much for your professional input.

This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.
Also, I do not smoke or do any kind of drugs. I eat meat and vegetables and enjoy salmon. I have tried with magnesium for a year to help myself, but it seems not to help really.
Thank you very much,

5 the restless legs and spasm in night time
6 very sensitive to relating to people. Easy to get overwhelmed when being together with people in my work as a boss for 100 persons in staff or being together with people in social activities
7 Worse when heat on my legs, and when I am sleepy, it helps to get up and move when the sensations come to my legs or arms.. When I have my legs in a 90 degrees angle or less they are more restless
8 I eat regularly very normal. Three times a day. I like fish, porridge potatoes. The potatoes is the food that makes me really satisfied when I am hungry. Nothing else helps in that manner.
9 I like 20/23 degrees celsius shadow. Cant be in very hot water like in a hot tube where other person love to be. Its to hot for me.
10 I sleep very well 8 hours a night. Easy to fall asleep. Preferraby on right side of my body. The Over leg bent over and resting like I am lying halfway on my stomach.
11 No special dreams actually. Dont remember dreams.
12 Dont perspirate to much. When I am doing talks in publik maybe. If things are not working around my speech. Nothing else
13 Normal
14 WYellow and my prostate is making me sometimes pee 3 or 4 times a night but ony if I have drunk a lot of water in late daytime. Often I dont get upp for a pee in night time.
15 I like to read and learn from reading. Iliek to bewith one person at a time. But not for to long. I get overwhelmed after a while. I like to talk to people but after a while I get quite.
16 They say I am sensitve and kind person.That I tend to be for myself even if its not to isolate. Its easier for me to be in the nature mare than around people. I enjoy food and eating. I am patient in helping people. I dont have an easy time to beangry. Its more like I am angry to myself than to other people.

Hello there,
I have received the 200c Rhus Tox, and I have taken one dose of it last night. I am curious about how often I need to repeat the dosage. Thank you again for your support.

that depends on whether or not you benefit from it. if it benefits you repeat only when symptoms come back otherwise we will have to change medicine.

Thank you for answering me so fast. What if my symptoms change where the restless quality still continues in the evening before I go to bed, but my partner notices that in the night while sleeping my legs and body are not jumping around so much the last two nights since I have taken the remedy.
Can you help me understand what to do with this ? I am planning to start practicing deep breathing exercises as well.
Thank you,
Mr. Ulf
