Suggest Treatment For Crawling Feeling In Joint When Diagnosed With Restless Legs
Hi there, I have suffered with restless legs for about a year now, mainly at night or at rest. The last few months it has worsened and has spread to my arms as well. I have a constant crawling feeling in all my joints continually all day (ankles, knees, hips, elbows and wrists) and pins and needles in my fingers and tongue. The twitching/jerking is seriously affecting my sleep as it takes ages to drift all due to the twitching/jerking and then I wake my self up with the twitching/jerking of my arms and legs. Is there anything you could recommend to ease this.
