I know what it feels like to have restless legs, since I have them and I am on meds for them. But just the last couple of days my upper front legs have been really aching. This is so bothersome that I cannot sleep. What could it possibly be? I am 57 and do not have variclose veins.
Are you exercising more? Or less? Maybe a change in that would help [either more or less depending on what you are now doing.]
How long have you taken the meds? Ask your medical provider if this is a side effect...You say meds [plural] so you might want to make sure about any interactions and/or side effects of the combination.
And you might try a glass of warm milk before going to bed - that's the “ancient” suggested helper...
Lastly - is there something bothering you emotionally? Our bodies have funny ways of telling us that we have stress/problems.
