Hi a, You may have RLS(restless leg synrome and PLMD( perodic limb movement disorder. This disease affects the nerves in the body. I suffer from both and what you are describing sounds like that. I hadnt slept a good nites sleep in years and thru a sleep study found I had a severe case of both. I slept only 4hrs during the study but actually none. I woke hundreds of times from leg and arm jerking, switching and my body was constantly moving. I never even got out of REM 1 stage of sleep, which was severe. I know take KLonaphin and Mirapex 1 hour before bedtime and now I sleep better, not great but better as now with this chronic pain. I would suggest a sleep study.
