DD15 has tingling pins and needles in her legs pretty much all the time, especially in the evening.
She says it feels like pressure all round her ankles.
Usually if she goes for a run, it’ll help so she runs 20 mins twice a day.
shes studying for her gcse mocks so spent most of the day sitting.
At dinner she said the pins and needles were even in her left arm.
She didn’t run this afternoon and said she is fed up of running and started crying.
Wesaw a neurologist who said probably RLS but no drugs can be given as she’s so young.
We tried one magnesium bath but she wasn’t convinced.
What do I do?
She said when she sits crossed legged at school in assembly she feels like her legs are like sand, so heavy and she can hardly stand up by the end. That it has got much worse recently.
She has already asthma, hayfever, had thyroid antibodies but that’s gone back to normal.
Can anyone help me.
She asked to see the GP but they’ll just fob me off? Won’t they?
I feel so lost, I can’t find any way to help her and the NHS doesn’t seem to care or have any solutions.
