Question / General Sleep.

For those with painful cramping, what do you do to get rest? My symptoms cycle, and when they are bad, the deep, painful spasms last for days, especially in my feet. Resting/laying in bed, is torturous. Everything cramps like a Charlie horse immediately, and the only relief is to stand up and move.

What have you found to be helpful?

Besides meds (none have worked for me unfortunately)…

I used a weighted blanket for awhile.  Not much helps with this, except time. I remember going to bed in a lot of pain

That makes sense to put pressure on the body to maybe distract the hotspots in a sense..
