    I’ve got OA in both my knees - makes exercise quite hard, I struggle with walking, going up and down stairs.

    Have you tried taking some painkillers (paracetamol &/or ibuprofen) about half an hour before you go to bed? That can help you settle if you need it.

    You may be able to take paracetamol or ibuprofen in addition to your normal medications. I know it helps me and my mother to take something before bed
