Nope, it doesn't work for me either. Cold does seem to help a lot. I take a cold can of soda out of the fridge and slowly roll it down my leg. I didn't even realize I had RLS until I read about it on this site. Well, actually I knew I had it, I just didn't know what it was called. It's good to know what the problem is but I wish the condition wasn't so vague and hard to treat.

Sometimes he pees right away & it's various amounts. He has never had RLS after peeing. It's weird & who knows why - but it works for him. We'd be interested to know if this works for anyone else.
