Hi, Wanda.  
Magnesium Glycinate has helped me tremendously with RLS. Please do check with your doctor however before starting a new supplement.  
Hugs,  
Laurie

I have found that massaging feet/legs helps relieve the jumpy/pain/crawly feeling. Occasionally I take flexeril.

I struggled with that I have not found anything except keeping the temp of the feet down and making sure skin is not dry that increases the burning feeling I get. IF my feet get too hot feeling makes my RLS worse. I sometimes squirt them with water. I have tried the medication but I couldn't take due to side effects. IF this all fails I rub them with lotion. I don't know what else to do. I have Flexeril also that does help sometimes.
