Severe RLS flare after surgery

I have mild RLS and severe PLMD (60-100/hr at the beginning of the night). I got an iron infusion which seemed to help. My next sleep study noted very little plmd. I'm also taking 300 mg gabapentin.

Then had a major invasive surgery on my jaw to treat sleep apnea. 3 months later, and I have the worst RLS I've ever experienced. It's brutal. It's all day, all night. Kicking is insane at night and making this surgical recovery very hard. My legs physically ache, never experienced that. They are also twitching uncontrollably all day long. I am up during the night trying to will them to stop. That is RLS as well?

Ferritin is now low again, and I will get another infusion soon.

Has anyone else experienced this after surgery? Is this common? I need hope.

Would MOD please let me know if selling is prohibited? thankyou!

I purchased this ASV in 2025. I was never able to get the algorithm to work for me, so the hours are from the prior owner. I'm selling it for what I paid $600 (included shipping). It works great, prior owner did not smoke.

I used this cpap for 2 years before moving to bi-level. No smoking, nothing notable to report. There is not a hose, I think you'd want to replace that for a used machine.

$250 plus shipping unless you're near Portland, OR and want to come pick it up. Please DM me if you're interested.
