My diagnosis isn’t confirmed yet but my neurologist is leaning toward corticobasil degeneration which is one of the diseases under the Parkinsonism umbrella

If it is R.L.S., there is a medication that worked magic for me. Ask your Dr for help with Restless Legs Syndrome. Or at least to test you. I had an overnight sleep monitor. That was how they proved It was an issue for me. Best of luck to you. I hope you can get some relief from the maddening leg movements,

You can take over the counter potassium & calcium to aid in cramping. I also take a muscular pain medicine and on occasional oxi pain medicine. You should ask your specialist what they recommend.
