Jumping Jiminy Crickets..

That's exactly how my legs feel lots of the time.  Have I mentioned that I have Restless Leg Syndrome ?  I know, I know, you think that's just a made-up "syndrome".....well, I did too until it got me !  I guess it was about 3 years ago when I noticed there was a big worn-out, thread-bare spot in the bed sheet about feet height.  Pretty soon, a hole was there and my feet were trapped in it!  I checked to see if there was "faulty fabric" where my husband's feet sleep and there was not !  I got new sheets and wrote it off to dry, cracked heels. 

Before long, another hole had mysteriously appeared in the same location and I noticed I was not sleeping that well anymore. My husband was complaining about all the kicking and twitching and I was up walking around in the wee hours.

That marked the end of peaceful sleep as I knew it!  Afternoon naps too ! 

Fairly soon, I was experiencing the "jimmy legs" in the car while driving or riding and stopping frequently to get out and walk around and around the car.

Now I'm a Requip user, and very thankful to have it.  Fellow movers and shakers  out  there, unite, and let me hear your stories and hopefully cures !  (I've already tried soap under the sheets, teaspoons of vinegar, magnesium tablets.....so don't bother with those) I'm looking for some hard-core CURES !
