Finally I can post! Thanks Mark!

I have had RLS since Dynesys Feb 07. It is the strangest feeling and I get it at times up to my shoulders. I wouldn't say it is uncontrollable but it sure feels better when I move. It's like what I would think the saying "ants in your pants" comes from. It is just so weird. Different for me from the nerve type stuff and the neuropathy. I thought at first it was flexeril withdrawl because I couldn't figure out what it was. I even had my primary care doc convinced it was that also. Of course thats what happens when he knows you as a nurse, he just accepts your diagnosis even if it's so wrong.

It was RLS. I read somewhere it could happen after spine surgery and my surgeon wasn't suprised. I can't recall the sites right now, but then again my brain doesn't always work either. Also I know it is worse if I am on my back with my legs elevated. I Can sometimes make it go away if I lay on my side and requip works great too!

Has anyone ever heard of flexeril withdrawal anyway?
