    Fidgety legs i call it.
    It must drive my hubby mad when hes trying sleep and i keep moving my legs.
    When i was on the community as a carer one of my old ladies told me she got it and she found that by drinking bitter lemon helped. Or she said if you dont like bitter lemon try taking quinine tabs.
    I do take a small bottle of bitter lemon bed with me now and i have found that it isnt as bad.
    Bye the way she got the advice from a nurse, so perhaps there is some truth in it.

    Take care

    OMG! Someone has finally posted RLS! My legs twitch all the time and have done ever since I suffered my very first panic attack, so it has to be linked to panic and anxiety. The only way I can describe it, is like when your GP tests your reflexes and your leg jerks out. My legs twitch hundreds of times a day. It used to worry me, but its just annoying now. They don't ache as such, just twitch and sometimes I scare the kids half witless when my legs just do their own thing. Tends to be my left leg more than my right.

    Glad I'm not the only twitcher!!

    Hi Hay,

    Wow me to it's so bloody annoying huh!

    It's amazing how many of us suffer. When I get really bad I tend to just move around a bit jog up and down or run up the stairs to try and calm it.

    Take Care,

    Love Pip's X X X X

    Hi

    I have this too mainly in my left leg it only happens in the evening. I have to stretch my leg or walk round. I don't have it though when i go to bed which is a good thing.

    My mom had it for years sometimes she would cry with it because she had it every day. It started at the top of her legs. Now she can hardly walk and she is sure that this is what has caused it.
