Foxyblue Posted March 3, 2007 Report Share Posted March 3, 2007 My symptoms are getting increasingly worse for leg pain. It used to be in the past few months if I went upstairs and sat down right away or crouched down, my legs were afire with throbbing pain. So bad that I had to kick my legs out and sit my but on the floor and let it subside. In the past few weeks, it has become not just after I go up steps but when I crouch down at all. The pain is intense until I straighten my legs out. ANyone have this and know why this is? I'm wondering what is going on in my body! ?Thank you, Bri Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tanzanite Posted March 4, 2007 Report Share Posted March 4, 2007 Oh yes, I get this too. It's horrible (hugs) Not sure what it is but wondering whether it's something to do with a build up of lactic acid. Maybe someone else will know.

willows Posted March 4, 2007 Report Share Posted March 4, 2007 I've had extreme leg pains day and night for about 7-8 years now guys and it hasn't in all this time ever subsided for more than 24 hours in one go. At night times its so bad I've been known to quietly cry to myself , I know crying doesn't help because in fact it probably sends my blood pressure all haywire as well , but when it gets to the point I want to take a chain saw to them .................In the day time this throbbing , aching pain can take over , once I was out walking and it became so bad I just had to sit down , I happened to be in town at the time , in the middle of town that is , but I had to sit on the pavement and rock my legs holding onto them by wrapping my arms around the fronts of them , my husband was with me and explained so it wasn't as bad as most people thought , they probably thought i was slightly mad , but I just didn't care .An ambulance came for me and they gave me morphine in hospital , this was over 6 years ago now and this is partly why I'm on such strong painkillers day and night times.Sorry I cant be any positive help , its a case of just having to grin and bare it or mind over matter .I dont know why it started , it just came one day out of the blue .I've tried ; hot water bottles, cool packs , massage , stretching exercises and much more over the years , but only painkillers really work .Good luck and I do hope that yours only is a brief interlude of pain.
