> Serzone and Remeron cause less akathesia definitely. You could also try adding OTC benadryl...that helps fight that sort of SSRI akathesia. Akathesia is believed to be from feeble dopamine activity. Anti-cholinergics like benadryl can help.

Unfortunately, benadryl is an antihistamine as well as an anticholinergic, and antihistamines seem to make RLS worse. This stuff is complex. I see my GP tomorrow and talk to my pdoc on the 13th of Feb. It's just a matter of hanging in there until I get the right combo. Thanks for all the suggestions.

Peace and good luck to everyone,
MB

(gosh, that sounded so final, but it wasn't meant to be...lol)
