talking  about movements, has anyone had the Elvis twitch of the leg?  My leg will just sort of do this little dance on its own.  It kinda shakes for a little while and then stops.

Yep, I get the leg shakes too, especially when I am sitting down and have any type of pressure on my toes - my grandkids can't wait for it to happen to me, so they can get a REALLY good "horsey-ride" from "Nanny".  My kids all think it's a hoot! - and at least it doesn't hurt (to me).

Dayna and Barb,

    Elvis twitch and horsey ride! LOL! I love to see a good sense of humor when I first login. I've never had them while standing but I have when sitting or laying down. My leg feels like a human jack hammer. Very irritating!      Smiles!
