Thanks for all your replies,I'm trying to keep away from any type of tablets I was hoping for some old "family" answer such as the one from Rockrose.

Keep your feet warm in bed. Bed socks & hot Water bottle, might help, according to.some people. Hope you can find a cure soon. It's miserable. I get it in my legs sometimes.

mine gets worse when my feet are warm

[Patsy33]

My legs feel better with hot water bottle. We are all different, I suppose...

Tablets such as those recommended by woof are useful as you may have a deficiency which is causing your problem. Magnesium deficiency is not uncommon.

"Magnesium deficiency is not uncommon. "

I agree,magnesium deficiency is bloody rare, HOWEVER, inadequate intake of magnesium although not uncommon is associated with chronic disease e,g Type 2 diabetes and alchoholism.......but still not that common.
