I have a restless foot (or nerve jumping in my right foot) 3 other members of my family have it. We were all born with it, my brother like my self have it 24/7 365 days a year, I can t sleep at night only get 4 or 5 hours every night i walk the floor for hours then during the day I m groggy and still have to go to work.my two sisters have it they would get it for a week then get rest bite for maybe a month. Anyway a specialist at a pain management clinic said he could get rid of it,he put a drip in the back of my hand and said it would numb the nerve and I d get ease. But the opposite has happened now it s in both feet the bottom half of my legs go mad I can t sit at work and I just hate life at the moment because of this. Nobody knows what it is can you help. I m 64 year old male and retiring soon and want to enjoy the last few years of my life because I haven t enjoyed the last 64 years can you help.im was on duloxetine 60mg a day then they stopped working,then I was on gabapentin they made me drowsy all the time but because of my restless foot even tho I was always sleepy I couldn t sleep.now I m on pregabalin and the dose is now 100mg but again they make me very sleepy.i don t want to give up work but I can t drive and work if I m drowsy all the time, please help sorry for the long letter but I wanted to give you as much details as possible. Is there a tablet like pregabalin I could take without the side effects. Thanks Jordan woods
