Hi,
For several months now I've been bothered by sensory symptoms in my legs when seated. I experience some sort of activity in my legs in the form of tingling, internal vibration, and potentially mild tension (?). It's all very mild but still unpleasant. It makes me feel restless. Certain positions give relief such as sitting Indian style and with legs crossed.
I often have the same sensations initially when lying down with my legs bent. However then it's more fleeting. It never prevents me from falling asleep. I never wake up feeling it.
In addition to this (and maybe a different phenomenon altogether) I get weird sensations in my legs when standing still, esp. without leaning against anything. It can be described as scratching/icing/burning/tingling to a point where I have the perception of not being able to stand any longer, but nothing happens. There is no weakness. My feet tend to cycle between ice cold and warm while standing. By the way I am fully mobile and a runner.
Anyone else recognize this? Any chance that the symptoms will go away? I guess I need to get used to them since they've been pretty consistent and persistent for several months.
