Bi-lateral Knee Replacement And Restless Legs Posted: 08-10-04 17:59pm


Here is what happened: on april 15, 2004, I had both of my knees replaced. I had as full range of motion as you can achieve, so the pt people decided to ramp up my physical therapy. I also have fibromyalgia, and in the past have experienced restless legs before. After that (which ended up being my last therapy session because I had to quit) session, my restless legs kicked in and I have been miserable for the past 6 weeks. And I am taking oxycodone, klonipin, and a few other drugs. Does anyone have any more suggestions on what to do? I have researched this and am at my wits end! Thanks, diane

I was reading your posting because you wrote about bi-lateral knee replacements and I am getting mine on 1-31-05. I noticed you are having problems with fibromyalgia. I have a company that has patented a succsessful treatment for fibro that we sell through physicians. Please go to our web site to learn more www.Ptlcentral.Com. Sean
