Weakness feeling in Legs and Arms
Posted , 39 users are following.
Does anyone else get the weakness and poutty feeling in your legs and sometimes arms? Has anyone else been having the sweats, panic anxiety and scary sensations in the chest and upper belly and weakness in legs and internal nerveness and such like non stop for a couple of months straight I have and so far not letting up! I'm trying this natural BUT it is so dang scary and tormenting! My last period was June 2016! By the end of the day MY legs feel tight and heavy too!

I am crying right now and at the same time happy i found this forum. I am 44 and currently feeling all your symptoms. I feel like i am going crazy. I was fine one day then boom, my body changed. my doctors says I am entering perimenopause. I only hope to find help soon. I am glad i am not alone. Us women need each other more than we think.

i had a lot of these symptoms went to a cardiologist for the chest pains. She did every test imaginable found nothing wrong. With the exception of elevated blood pressure. She put me on a small dose of blood pressure medicine 25 mg every single symptom disappeared. At this point I feel so much better I am not questioning it.

Hello everyone I am 45 and this year has been a horrible ride. Currently I am going through jelly leg and arms feeling like symptoms too. My legs feel so so weak and heavy and tight. I can stand too long due to that. I feel abnormal and always tired. I am also going through internal shakes that feels uncomfortable too. I started to exercise one month ago and I thought that was the reason I am getting weak muscles but even though I rest it does not go away. Should i go back to exercise eventhough my muscles feel weak and heavy???

You described the issues with my legs/arms to the tee! EXCEPT my also get numb I have to go sit down for just a few mins and the numbness gone away , but the weak weak jelly feeling and fat feeling I have to deal with it throughout the day . SEE my weakness in arms and legs are a horrible feeling BUT I can left things, squeeze things good all that it's just that really strong feeling of weakness BUT not actual weakness cause I can still stand on one foot and walk and with arms can lift and such its such a hard thing to explain to others EXCEPT for us women who are actually experiencing and living with this nightmare!

Your symptoms sound like your adrenals... during this time the adrenals need lots of support. Are you taking anything to support the adrenals?

Exercise is not good if its your adrenals, you should just do light walking. It will only wear the adrenals out more, in other words worsen your symptoms. I know from experience. Feed your adrenals and thyroid too.

How do you feed your adrenals ?

Amy just today I started some walking and I started feeling so sick with weakness in my legs so I went and lay in bed and I realized I started feeling better. I get the weak muscle where I try to make my 7,000 or 10,000 steps. You may refer to my earlier post which I did today.

Angella, I am having all those symptoms, especially the pain in shoulder, weakness in legs and very low feelings which started late last year. Allergies are killing me also. I thought I was over this menopause since I went into surgical menopause since August 2011 and I'm now 60.

Hope so sorry to hear of your rare allergies. My allergies increased as it relates to perfumes... I have realized that after entering surgical menopause, I could no longer use my favorite perfumes; none of them. Also most household cleaning products and air freshener are just a no, no. 🤨
I'm just hoping and praying this phase in our life will pass soon. Up to yesterday, I was feeling so sick with weakness in my legs and this morning felt low feeling in my stomach - these feelings are on and off throughout the day. 😒
