Sorry Megan, I don't know if my advice will help you. I have RLS problems, and my doctors assistant told me to eat bananas and drink Gatorade. This is because the electrolytes are low. If I eat a banana every day I don't have a problem with RLS. If I miss my banana for a couple of days then the legs will be going crazy at night. My neurologist told me that will not work, and gave me a mirapex starter pack. I took it for a couple of nights, but then went back to the bananas, because it does work for me. I don't know if this will work for you, but I think my RLS is caused from my electrolytes being low ( this may happen from long distance runs).
