Guest guest Posted September 2, 2002 Report Share Posted September 2, 2002 I have PLMD...........a sleep disorder unlike (Restless leg syndrome where your limbs bother you intensely and there is a deep inner feeling of crawling within the leg, and strong desire to move them, and get up and walk around and massage the legs - nightly and daily) In Period Limb Movement Disorder (plmd) your limbs usually your feet, toes, legs, move at night, and trigger awakenings, most of the time you are not even aware of it.........and you don't always come to a conscious state, but it does bring you out of deep sleep..........causing disturbed sleep. In my sleep study I had 70 episodes.........which actually is on the low side for many PLMD people. Check out these sites.
