Hi I'm 13 and ever since I can remember I have kicked, punched and rolled when I've been sleeping violently but lately It's changed. Instead I've been not even asleep before the symptoms start. I just episodes of twitching that I can't control. I also have suspected moderate CFS/ severe IBS-D if that has anything to do with it. I don't really want to see my doctor as he doesn't believe my symptoms because a blood test is inconclusive. I haven't mentioned this problem.

    Magnesium doesn't have to be taken orally to be effective. I have severe bowel issues if I take it orally, so I use it transdermally and it works well for me.

    It does sound like you have RLS and not PLMD but in terms of remedies what works for one will work for the other
