I am struggling, loathe to call my GP about this.

I am on 4 pumps of Gel but my legs at night are incredibly painful, mainly my calves with faint twitching in my legs and feet. This morning I feel like I have really worked out. This morning my fingers ache. This has been going on for a few weeks now and I don't really know what to do next. I'm incredibly sleep deprived due to it!

Can anyone relate?

It may be that 4 pumps every night are too much, have you considered 3 for 3-4 nights then add a 4th for 1 night to see how your body reacts?

My restless legs were cured by eating small bananas every day.

Have you tried taking magnesium? Mag Glycinate taken in the evening is a great muscle relaxant. BetterYou also do a nice magnesium body butter that you can use in addition to the supplements. I have used the butter before when I have had restless legs and it really helped.

Thank you so much! I had forgotten about magnesium! Apparently, you can buy magnesium bath salts too
