A WOMAN KICKS HER HUSBNAD WHILE SLEEPING,HUSBAND WORRIED WAT IS IT INTERNAL CONFLICTS OF WIFE AGAINST HUSBAND OR RESTLESS LEG SYNDROME

  #2

LOL A Good One

RLS is definitely not a disease which occurs in the Sleep but infact it causes more disruption of Sleep rather than anything else. So i would its her internal conflicts with her husband/ or any other blood related family member.

PS Watch out!!

Is it so ???? I thought RLS occurs in sleep also and the answer should be RLS.

I shall go with RLS...which occurs more in night or evening and this can lead to disrupt sleep and eventually decrease daytime alertness.
This also more common in women.

  #7

RESTLESS LEG SYNDROME

  #8

description of RLS is that it involves a jerking limb movement, not 'kick'. and the leg doesn't move, it just jerks in place.

furthermore, RLS in most cases is a CNS disorder, and stress/psychiatric factors can exacerbate it but not cause it.

so, i think it's internal conflict

Yes it is definitely an INTERNAL CONFLICT ... as you ppl say it .. BUT this is known as REM Sleep Disorder... on contrary to the norma REM Sleep in which there is paralysis of all the limbs .. this disorder includes Doing of things that you are dreming ... or something of that sort .. but the main thing is that the pt EVEN in his REM sleep .. when he is dreaming does'nt get muscle paralysis (not an appropriate word though) .. So pts with this dx and if their dreams are voilent .. they are voilent too in the bed especially in a Husband wife case when they have an internal conflict .. and the wife kickin him .. !!!!
