Don't feel rested after #sleeping at night? In menopause, my sleep got worse. I found out that I have #restless #legs #syndrome — #RLS, or #Willis-Ekbom disease). It's a neurological condition that can run in families. It might be caused by an imbalance of the brain chemical dopamine. (1/2)

I've been taking prescription meds for ~2 years to treat #RLS. I usually sleep well now. Talk to your physician about any sleep issues. They might find that a treatable condition is interfering with your sleep & can treat it.
