Apart from the Sour Cherry I already mentioned I forgot to say put the end of the bed on blocks so its raised. I also get lots of blood tests to ensure I'm not short on anything relevant like magnesium. Every little bit helps. These 2 things have eased my flailing legs plus my erhem night screaming. What a bugger all these inflictions are. Best of luck to you all. If all else fails pray and try to relax. I think being edgy certainly does not help.

I have found relief putting my legs on top of the sofa too...thanks to all of you and your great ideas!! I have got so many good tips here!!
Yes. i also use leg elevation - in bed - I turn around and use the wall at the top of the bed. It involves some gymnastics with the bed clothes and pillows. Like the other posters I have to have my legs quite high up so bottom as close to the wall as possible. I also do a series of stretches when the legs strike, one of which is a shoulder stand with legs straight up in the air which I hold for as long as possible. It seems to help.
