My legs jerk constantly everytime I lie down
Almost every time I lie down my legs jerk every few seconds. This can go on for hours. Some nights it's not so bad and I can sleep but sometimes it's pretty violent. I also have Fibromyalgia and can get really bad leg pain so I need to lie down a lot. I've tried distraction techniques or moving other parts of my body and that will work temporarily as long as I'm concentrating on it. I've tried everything I can think of to stop it. Sitting up works but I physically can not sleep sitting up. Trust me I've tried. If anyone has any tricks or meds that have worked for them, please let me know.
