I sometimes get Charley horses in the middle of the night but I suspect that isn't what you are talking about. My Neuro said Potassium will help with the twitches.

Sorry I can't be of more help.

I get that too. don't know why exactly (never looked it you). Seems to happen less if you stretch often and exercise lightly. Heavy exercise can exacerbate it.

Also have trouble changing positions. think it's from overall muscle weakness, especially the "core" area. Can't do a sit up either.

I wake up every morning stiff in the legs. I find that stretching before getting out of bed helps (lefting each leg as far up as possible stopping and counting to 5 (5xs), also bending each leg, one at a time, and lowering 5xs.

I also have a hard time rolling over and the only thing I can tell you is to take your time and eventually it gets a little easier (not much). You need to find what works for you, what makes it easier for you, when trying to roll over. Your core muscles are weak and untl you get stronger this will continue to be a problem.

zzz1 mentioned to me some time ago that stretching would help with morning cramps & once i finally put it into place each morning before getting up it definitely has helped. that stiffness & cramps definitely go away a lot faster & sometimes aren't even there when i first wake up.

I have the muscle cramping, stiffining, and spasms too. Getting out of bed in the morning is not fun (maybe that's why I put it off as long as possible?). I try to lay there for a while when I first get up and move around some, stretch before I sit up. Once I sit up for a moment or two, I then stand and start moving... it's always the most painful for the first 20 mintues or so of the morning. Not sure what the answer is or if there is one.
