Odd question

I have restless leg syndrome-have had it as long as I can remember in childhood. It seems worse since starting sema. I wake up about 3:30 am with terrible jumpiness and can’t get back to sleep. Baby aspirin helps but lately the jumpiness is all over-in my shoulders and upper body as well as legs. Does anyone else experience this?

Mine gets worse if I'm not ridiculously hydrated. I have to drink a ton of water, it's a bear getting through it, but the consequences are worse. I also take magnesium, and try to get enough potassium. I also keep my house cold at night. Those are the only things that help me.
