    Every day starting at about 5am, i am awoken by very strong leg, back and glute spasms... these are so strong that my back and/or knees will crack.

    Ive tried everything including Magnesium and muscle relaxants but am a struggling. Has anyone else been through this?

    Any suggestions/ideas?

    Thank you,

    F.

    Yes. It is TMS. As soon as my pain started going down, I started getting spasms and cramps. Do not panic, try to get calm - it will eventually go away, as it did for me. It is called extinction burst.
