It's one thing to read about one of our topics that we focus on with the Digi Blog Train List - to try to understand it enough to find appropriate words or phrases to create word art. But it's something completely different to start reading about a medical condition and realize that you, yourself, have several of the symptoms on the checklist.
I always thought Restless Leg Syndrome was something that affected people who were trying to sleep. But I realize now that it could also be an explanation for my compulsive urge to squirm and move around as I sit in the evenings, often watching TV and/or working on my computer. My legs will be up on the footrest of our recliner couch, and suddenly I'll just HAVE to move and stretch them, change position, or even massage them against each other. (For anyone who has given birth...you know that urge to push? And you just can't NOT do it? It's similar to that. You can't NOT move around.) If I don't, it gets that pins-and-needles feeling.
Thankfully, that's the ONLY effect I have linked to this syndrome. Others have it much worse. You can learn more about Restless Leg Syndrome at the Restless Leg Syndrome Foundation website.
In the meantime, our group of designers have come up with mini kits, elements, papers, and even some planner pages this month.

And, as usual, I've created some word art to go along with the theme:
I hope you're able to use some of these, whether it's to scrap about RLS or some other chronic illness.

ReplyDeleteI’d recommend using Dr. Utu Herbal Cure topically for instant pain and itch relief as well as accelerated healing of lesions and permanently stopping oral and genital herpes virus outbreaks. I have tried just about everything from acyclovir suppressive therapy to different natural oils, extracts, and other natural methods, some of which are EXTREMELY painful and exacerbate the problem (i.e. apple cider vinegar!). While vitamin E oil and suppressive therapy worked well for me, when I became pregnant I went back to trying to find a herbal cure. I was using vitamin E oil topically for a while but it was thin and difficult to use and only seemed to prevent further outbreaks rather than getting rid of it. I contacted Dr. Utu Herbal Cure through my friend. To my surprise, I could tell my outbreak was starting to heal within only a few hours! No more itching or pain! Dr. Utu Herbal Cure that I used was liquid herbs in bottles, so it was very easy to use. It simply whiffs, but it works so I don’t care! The best part is I successfully delivered a herpes-free beautiful daughter without further pills. Anyone who has tried Dr. Utu Herbal Cure knows just how quickly those treatments can add up. So give it a try! Anyone can reach Dr. Utu through
