Re: restless legs

I also have this, but I am not on Taxol but taxotere. I even have it sitting in the treatment chair and it drives me nuts. At home it mostly happens at night when going to bed, and I really haven't found anything that helps except taking a lorazepam to knock myself out. I am on glutamine and B6 for neuropathy, but that hasn't seemed to have much been any help for the restless leg. Definitely ask they doctor if there is anything they can reccomend that could help. Otherwise, as said..all we can do is just keep on keeping on, and know that one day it will be better. I know its hard, hang in there. ((hugs))
