Re: Restless leg syndrome?

[Guest guest]

Could you share your responses with me too.

I thought I had it, but I am not sure. When I start to doze off, my legs

get creepy-crawling feelings. Once I am asleep, they go into muscle spasms

which wake me up. Seems restless to me, but does that fit in the dx?

thanks,

Thanks !

I am in the process of obtaining a referral for a sleep study. So I should

know soon enough.

That is called " Restless Leg Syndrome " and is a treatable sleep disorder.

It could be part of ACM for some sufferers. A formal sleep study is needed

to correctly diagnose and treat it. I have a mild form of it. Yours sounds

kind of severe and needs to be looked at.

Restless leg syndrome?
