Veritas1969….I regonize what your saying….it sounds or how you discribe it could be Restless~legs, but it is for every~one different. With me i had that before fallen asleep…so when i was lying in my bed peacfully….it started…..I did not understand what it was i thought I was overstressed or there was not enough blood flow going through my legs…..i cycle, walk, streched my legs, put a pillow underneath my legs…..name it all i have done it… The fustrating thing was it did not go away……..it drove me mentally crazy…summertime was the worse time….my feet got hot on top of it all and had to even cool them off in cold water…that helped only for a short periode of time, on top of that even in my sleep i reguarly kicked my husband and that woke him up aswell….LOL…not a good thing if you need to go to work the next day…. i had problems fallen in sleep, because i was to much foucused on my legs…..maybe even hyperfocussing…LOL…..fallen a sleep is/was already a big issue for me! IN the end i could not handle it anymore, so enough was enough! I did my research on Restless~legs, went to my doctor discussed it with her, she confirmed me that i could have Restless~ legs. She started me on some medication, since then i have been using the right medication…i take them 2 hours before i go to sleep… no more movements…..BUT..but…..when i do forget them……..which i do sometimes…..ugh …. i notice it straight away if i did forget them…..LOL…For everyone it is different, so it might be not for you….i don’t know? If you like, just check the link out…it might be some helpful information? I know some people who have it and don’t even notice it anymore. It is something that has been going on in my family, in the day time my grand~dad use to fiddle around all the time with his feed when he sat still in his chair…my mother has it aswell..but she is alright with it….So there you go………different people different needs…
