Sometimes i wake up at night with the strangest feeling. Its really hard to explain but im gonna try. Its like my whole body is freaking out, like my arms and legs feel restless and so weird, like i need to get up and move them around. My heart doesnt really race so im not sure if its some kind of anxiety thing. Its not restless leg syndrome, its mostly my arms and upper body. But i wake up with this horrible feeling. Its not really pain, which is why its hard to explain. I have no idea what it is but when it happens it keeps me awake for at least an hour. i toss and turn over and over, like its somehow gonna make it go away. Does anybody have any idea what im talking about? again its really hard to describe. (link)
I get the same thing. I actually believe it IS restless leg syndrome.I also believe it is worse with dehydration. Also if you happen to be on any pain relief programs like vicodin or percocet. That feeling is definitely part of the withdrawal symptoms.
I think the only thing you can do though is to make sure you are properly hydrated.
The doctor put me on all kinds of weird meds for it , but hydration worked the best.
