Isn't interesting, I used to wake in pain throughout the night for quite some time. Now I've shifted and can sleep through the night however, the games begin again upon movement. And I do wake in pain no matter what. Hard not to have anxiety when you think about the challenges nighttime brings and waking. I agree, @helennicola, resting time does make one more aware of pain however, my abilities are so far gone at this point that resting is my only go to. Typically it's with heat to calm. Stinks to be a car with real bad wiring! Have a nice day all. 🌞

I don’t agree with your neurologist although one of my doctors said the same thing. I can be sitting in my chair massaging my bare feet and legs and concentrating on how they feel and noticing that they feel perfectly normal. 30 minutes later I’m in bed with my feet and legs burning. So what’s going on?

@helencola, I used to think that way also when I was looking into getting a standing desk. I did a little research and found that a prone is actually best for circulation. The heart doesn't have to work as hard to pump the blood up and down (I think). Here's a reference:
