Restless Leg Syndrome with Dialysis

    My father is on Dialysis for the last 8 months. He is having awful trouble sleeping. Drifts off for an hour or so then is awake most of the night. He also can't sleep through dialysis but is often drowsy and falling asleep during the day. It doesn't help that he doesn't like the dialysis.

    Has anyone experience with this and can help propose any solutions? Or separately can anyone recommend any sleeping aids? He has tried some of the relaxants/Kalms etc. with no avail. Is there any other products on the market or suggestions?

    He tried hypnosis. Did not go well due to him being old fashioned and not trusting the technique.
