    Night time is my enemy- once I stop for the day my muscles seem to seize up- spasms, twitching, and legs feel like they weigh a hundred pounds. I can only get about 3 hours of sleep-I have a constant vibration in my left foot. How do you explain the extreme exhaustion that I am feeling to the...
