Yup--I'm 70 years old and take atenolol, omeprazole, paxil, and univasc.
At night I take 75 mg of generic benedryl for sleep. And, of course, a
daily Centrum-type vitamin pill.

Incidentally, the pain-problem only started when I began daily walks of
about 45 minutes. Now, even without the daily walks, the problem remains.
I've tried several different ways of sleep with--and without--bed
clothing.
So far, the only thing that seems to help is raising the setting on an
electric mattress pad--the pain seems diminished at higher settings,
though the problem remains.

Any other thoughts?

Virtually all of the prescriptions medications you listed MIGHT have leg
pain as one of their side effects. Or, you might have Restless Leg Syndrome.
