I'm not kicking in my sleep or anything, it just feels tense and cramped. Once I get up and move around, it works itself out and feels better...or at least less tense/cramped.
Fishboy, I actually did a little stretching last night before bed, and it seemed to help.
Gonna consult with the doc about it. Might even try the chiropractor.

I have read where a bar of soap in the sheets of your bed will help with leg cramping. Alot of people swear by this. Might give it a try

My Mom has restless leg syndrome. In late afternoon if she hasnt taken her medicine she cant hold her legs still, and it gets worst the later it gets. She says same thing about feels like her skin/muscles are crawling. She is on Requip now as well and it has helped her quite a bit.

That is what Papaw describes. You may want to have a Dr. check it out. Or you can do what I do and just suffer. lol I just have to keep mine moving to keep them from driving me nuts. Mine is more like something crawling thru the muscle. You can actually see it when it does it. You just described my Brides symptoms to a tee! Every night when she gets tired you can see the legs muscles move and then she starts moving her legs and feet. Does not seem to bother her sleep though, girl can flip that sleep switch quick!
It feels creepy. Once I get to sleep, I'm okay.
moondawg- I hope you get yours taken care of.

Me, snore? I've been told I do.
I am tired during the day and nod off at the computer from time to time.
Varicose veins...I don't think I have them.
