RLS/WED and Colon Cancer

Jedimom

I've just had my first treatment and had RLS/WED before I began. It is so abd right now that I am considering stopping treatment. This is actually driving me insane. Any uggestions? I take .25 mg of Mirapex right now and the RLS used to be well controlled.

What is RLS/WED?

I guess I haven't had it because I don't know what it is.  Hope things improve.

This drives me nuts as well

It is bothersome during chemo, I hate it, I take a Vicodin now before the chemo and my legs don't bother me then.  Good luck, I understand, I hope you can find a solution that will work for you!!!!

My legs or feet are always moving, though I have never been diagnosed with anything.  When I was doing the chemo, my legs, especially in bed at night, would not keep still. They also 'itched'. Not the skin, but under the skin. Its hard to describe. I am happy to tell you that it has passed, and yours will pass too, though it will take a while. 

I do so hope that you can get it under some kind of control, as you don't need to be stopping treatment. I guess you have to ask yourself if its worth dying over. Sorry to be so blunt, but iif you stop treatment and the cancer gets out of hand, then that may be the end result.

I pray that you will find relief.  Come and visit us often. Youi'll not find a better bunch of people (well, I'm sure you can, but you know what I mean) and tons of support and information. 

Good luck!
