Has your wife been diagnosed with fibromyalgia?

Yes and on meds that don't help

I too suffer with this, maybe suggest she goes back to GP to see if she can get some sort of pain management or different painkillers. Unfortunately I believe it may be part of a flare up.

Hope it eases soon.

Hello Windwalker71

Is she possibly experiencing RLS - Restless Legs Syndrome? Here's a link with more information that may be of interest;

If you feel these symptoms match your partners, it might be worth considering mentioning it to the GP

All the best

Thanks for the advice

Hello Windwalker71 I used to get restless legs syndrome, since I started to use hydrotherapy it has calmed down- I do get it sometimes and I take paracetamol to calm it, that might not suit everyone but the medication for RLS is a bit nasty-maybe ask her gp about other therapies like hydro or acupuncture?
