[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 183067, member: 1514"] I know some of you talked about weighted blankets for Sensory Integration Disorder (SID) and then you talked about them for use for restless legs. Did anyone ever buy them for that purpose? If so, what weight did you get? Did they work? Before I take an ax and chop Tonys legs off, I thought I might try weighing down his legs...lol. I havent managed a full nights sleep with him in the bed for weeks and weeks now. Maybe months. His legs are getting worse. My medications arent even getting me to sleep now through his movement. He bucks so badly the bed is like something from the Exorcist. I got this idea tonite to attempt to weigh his legs down with this old army surplus sleeping bag that is thick as hell and I filled it with two bags of cat litter. I put it over his legs. He isnt happy with me but oh well. The only other thing I can think of is to put him IN the sleeping bag! [/QUOTE]
