This is known as periodic limb movement or restless leg syndrome and it not only common but a serious problem due to resultant rest deprivation. Newer and more expensive medications are advertised but older inexpensive medications (such as temazepam) are just as effective and lead to fewer side effects. Most general or family physicians recognize and treat this disorder.
