Tactile Hallucinations Before Sleep

Every night for the past two weeks I have been experiencing tactile hallucinations. Before I fall asleep I feel pressure on my toes as if a rodent is pushing or nibbling at my feet (that is my perception). This is BEFORE I fall asleep. I kick at what I perceive is causing it and it stops only to resume in a minute or so. Eventually I fall asleep. I am 64 and use no drugs, other than prescribed, and I don't drink alcohol. Can someone put a name on this disorder?  Thanks, Seamus
