What drug are you coming off of? Opiate?  Benzo?  Usually just your legs kick when detoxing not you whole body.

Hi!  It would be worth the trip out tonight to get the Mag/Cal/Zinc supplement and Hylands Restful Legs.  Also, some epsom salts for hot baths!  Priceless info from the above posters.  It really works!!!

Patience is the only other thing that will help!  Time cures these symptoms better than anything else!  Good luck!

Get in the bathtub and soak.  In the morning get to the store and get some Hylands.  This will get better so hang in there.....

the twitching is the worst....it will drive you nutz....I got releafe from highlands restful legs that and a calcium/magnesium /zinc 3 in one vitamin you can pic both products up at walmart in the vitamin section walgreens also carys the highlands restful legs stuff it will help a lot with the twitching theres a lot of 24 hr walgreens out there so if your up and cant sleep you can mabe run and get some....if you cant get out try a hot bath as hot as you can stand it
try to stay in as long as you can but even 5 or 10 min is enough to get releaf go strait from the tub and lay on top of your covers in bed and finish drying off in bed then just lay there and air dry and cool down this should help a lot with the twitching good luck and God bless.......Gnarly

Hi, Sounds like RLS. Are you taking anything for that? I found tonic water mixed with juice, bannanas(or any food with potassium), Hylands restful legs helped alot. Also try Magnesium supplement. Hylands will probably get you the fastest relief. Although it really didn't help me by itself many swear by it.Hope this helps. Good luck!
