Spastic colon

I need some help. I've tried alot of things and nothing seems to be helping me. I've got a spastic colon right now and for the past 6 weeks. It interrupts my sleep and as my husband said yesterday, I have no sleeping pattern. I have to take naps to get enough sleep in.

To add to my problems, I have involuntary arm and leg movements when I try to sleep (only at night, not during naps); so much so that I get up and play mindless computer games to keep me on the sleepy side so that when it calms down, I can go back to sleep. I've taken calcium/magnesium, plain magnesium, acupuncture, valium, and quinine (tonic water - flat so I don't get the carbonated water). Nothing helps. The feelings of jerkiness come from my upper arms and thighs on the ouside. Nobody can figure it out. Is there a connection or two different problems? Any suggestions?
Thanks
Carol
