Has your husband ever been evaluated for RLS (restless leg syndrome)?  If he has the symptoms of RLS, he may be helped by a glass of tonic water before bed or if it's really bad (like mine is), I take Requip before bed and the kicking is gone.  I was almost banished to the couch myself before I started taking Requip.  Def. check with his doctor.

I really don't have an answer either.  My husband has neuropathy as well and I have taken over the couch to sleep at night. Can't stand the restlessness as I have to work.  Good luck with that one.   :cuddle;
