Restless Leg Syndrom: Perhaps you're describing Restless Leg Syndrome (http://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/restless-legs-syndrome/basics/definition/con-20031101). If you have diabetes, you could be describing diabetic neuropathy (http://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/diabetic-neuropathy/basics/definition/con-20033336) although it takes years to develop as result of poor control.
