Restless legs: Make an appointment with your doctor to get a blood test regarding your ferritin blood levels.You might also ask if your Adderall (dextroamphetamine and racemic amphetamine) is contributing to your condition . A home remedy is drinking tonic water which contains quinine.

Rls: Consultation with neurologist might help. Most respond to meds.

Possibly RLS: If you are experiencing restless legs syndrome (rls) that is causing sleep disruption, please see a sleep medicine specialist to determine if it is truly RLS and to adequately treat it. Until then, try to keep hydrated, do gentle leg stretches prior to bedtime, avoid caffeine, and try to regularize your bedtime. Hope that helps!
