I have a question about this because I am confused. I have what I thought was RLS but have also wondered if what I am experencing is more like spasms.

My doctor gave me Trileptal for TN and it has helped with my face pain. I have also noticed a huge improvement in how my legs feel. I can actually sit comfortably at watch tv in the evening!
Before the medication my toes would contract and my foot and leg would jump. I feel what seems like pressure or pulling in my lower back and then it travels down my leg to my feet. My right is worse than my left. But I get relief if I lay on the floor or go to bed.
If I have symptoms in bed I do not notice. It does not keep me from going to sleep once I am realaxed.
Is that RLS?
