    I had more of a wobbly leg feeling. I also was lightheaded during the same time.

    My legs felt very odd, but more wobbly than heavy.

    I wake up with heavy&painful legs and ankles almost every day in these days. I can hardly stand up to get going...

    Oh my word yes!

    For about 2 weeks now my legs feel heavy, achey and strange. I'm terrified it's poor circulation as i have varicose veins... so worrying. 😦

    It's such a weird feeling...

    hi hopefore - i dont have "heavy legs" per se, but the sensation i have, aside from feeling incredibly achy is I feel like my tendons, ligaments & muscles dont work anymore. My right knee is almost bone on bone, but that really doesnt bother me as much as this sensation that my legs dont work - i know that they do because when i do my exercises they work fine, its just the walking/standing thing & this came on overnight in December - i also have the tingling/burning sensation on tops of feet & front of shins - this is no picnic -

    Thank all your ladies for your replys. It's feels so good knowing that i am not alone. I took the chance and went out today. Felt a little anxiety but did what had to be done. I cannot allow these symptoms to take over my life. Everyday is a struggle not knowing what symptom lies around the corner but i press on. It's good knowing that we all women on this forum have each other. Wishing you all the best. Hugs
