Please any advice. I’ve had restless legs on and off for few years and self medicated eg analgesia, rubs, yoga, magnesium etc. I’ve had chemo, surgery and now waiting to start radiotherapy and TDM1 xt week. My restless legs now worse at night, I had 2 hours sleep last night and that was the final straw. I phoned GP today to ask for gabapentin as that seems to be the drug of choice for this sym
om but he refused saying I need to speak to BCN or oncologist. Is he being over cautious ? Anyway I will ask when there tomorrow. Has anyone on here having any issues with restless legs preventing t
m sleep and on any medication for it. It’s really making me anxious and dread going to bed
