Sleep disorder: Chronic insomnia can be associated with restless leg or periodic leg movement at bed time. It can be quite annoying to the suffer and bed partner. Diagnosis can be confirmed in the sleep lab study, or by therapeutic trial of clonazepam. Cut down caffeine, smoke and alcohol consumption, stretching exercise or massage therapy may help to reduce the symptom.
