      Since age 26, creepy crawly sensations make me move my legs. Started out to be at night in bed, but now sometimes I get it in the daytime too. Also in arms too at times.

      Alternating D & C. C would be so bad that I would cramp and literally almost fall to the floor in pain. I have recently, last 2 weeks, been taking Metamucil and it has helped me greatly. I plan to continue it. Not fun by any means, right?
