Does Sensation Of Cold Water Running Through Veins In Legs Anyway Relate To Kidney Transplant ?

I had a kidney transplant almost fours years ago. I was always a healthy person but they were just failing. I am female 5ft 10.5 inc and weight about 162 lbs. The last couple of months when I go to bed within ten minutes my legs get uncomfortable with the sensation of cold water running though my veins. What do you think it is?
