Other than OTC sleeping aids or antihistamines, I'd call your doctor and have a discussion.

However, if your leg pain came back, and continues to come back, will you be able to cope with that pain, and if not, what? All prescription medications used for pain (whether narcotic or otherwise) have the potential for side effects and physical dependence (which means withdrawal when discontinued).

Just something to consider in your discussion with your doctor.
