Newest fear. ..if I bend over for to long say doing yard work the outsides of my calves start aching? Of after I sit in the car for an hour or so I am so stiff I can barely get out of the car! Anyone else? My hypochondriac side is coming out again!

    Hi yes I get the same thing. My legs feel heavy as well. I've found magnesium helps. I'm certainly aware when I forget to take it.

    Oh yeah, I experienced the stiffness too. It was bad at first, but it has subsided a bit.

    Magnesium may help or a really good multivitamin. I stated taking vitamin D too.

    Yup. I get these. In the beginning when all the symptoms started it was bad. It has Def subsided over the past 2 years. It does back every now and then. Good luck. Sending hugs.
