Hi Everyone....I have a question.

For a few years now(i am in my 40's) I have had the dx of severe RLS that started in my 20's. Now I am having another MRI because all of my tingling is on the left side (from head to toe on left side....in spots not the entire left side).
Neurontin and Requip eases some of these sensations but they never really go completely away. Also, I'm taking prednisone because I have an elevated sed rate and crp. I also was diagnosed with Alopecia Areata (1 sm. spot) a few months ago as well.
The RLS in both legs, along with the occassional leg jerk is indeed alleviated by the Requip but the deep-down, itchy,electrical buzzing is not relieved...I can feel it when I'm moving around but not as bad as when I am sitting or lying.
IT IS MADDENING.
QUESTION:
Does left-sided paraesthesia along with inflammation sound like MS or RLS or Pinched Nerves? Is there a medicine to get rid of the itch?
