Help from sleep tech/doc

Can anyone (sleep tech or doc) help me with a few crazy questions? I'm a sleep technologist and have been one for 13 years....I'm having a hard time getting an answer to these even from the med director here....any good tips for determining if it's plms or very small RERAs; I'm not talking about obvious ones, I mean where it could go either way easily. Looking for tips b/c my med dir doesn't believe in them, but I do of course. Also, any info on arousal indices- for PLMs what's considered mild/mod/severe sleep frag TECHNICALLY (not just by obvious observations)? I've dealt with this stuff for years obviously, but it's all changed SO much over the years (No RERAs when I started!). Just trying to get updates. Thanks!

I have really high PLMD at the lab, it's your leg twitching and waking up.
by the way are there any treatments like klonopin or diamox that work?  
I've been suffering so much even with an asv and got diabetes, abscesses and brain damage from the 75% oxygen
