I had something for years in the 90's off and on going on with my legs.

Usually at night when I was trying to go to sleep. It would keep me from

sleeping.

I had it happen again since my health really took a turn south. I thought it

may have been caused by being on my legs too much that day. But, I am not sure.

Yes. Two things helped. Magnesium, and GABA.

Are you talking about leg tremors that resemble

1. a deep down crawling uncomfortable feeling that bothers you so much

you have to move your legs or get up and walk?

or

2. the legs will move on their own, involuntary? usually upon laying

down to rest, or before going to bed. The movements can range from

anything as little as a shifting to a jerk, to a violent kick. Sometimes,

the victim of this doesn't even know this is happening, it is someone

else that sees it, (or ends up feeling it

Sounds like RLS (Restless Legs Syndrome) or PLMS (Periodic Limb Movements in

Sleep). Had it for over 25 years . No fun...

See www.rls.org for more info.

This sounds like PN, Peripheral Neuropathy. Mine hit at exactly 1am and I

had to walk for hours. Hurt to sit, hurt to stand, but hurt less to walk LOL

'Almost' felt like a withdrawal? Went on Neurontin for it. I had a very hard

time coming off of Oxycontin because of it, couldn't tell if it was PN or

the Oxy. . I think there is a site www.peripheralneuropathy.org I get

their news letter, pretty informative.

I mean shaking/trembling of the leg.
