Hi there. Yes,, I get really painful legs too but all the time. I wake up with the pain and no pain relief seems to help. It's so frustrating not being able to do what you want. Can't offer any advice but just to let you know that you are not alone with this. Stay positive :)

When you next go to the doctors or hospital, ask if they have checked your magnesium levels. It has been suggested that my nightly leg pains are a result of my low magnesium levels.

I am given amitriptiline for the pain, just 10 mg. It makes it less acute.
