    Trish I have often had achey legs in the past and here were some of the reasons

    1. One summer I had them dreadfully and it was because I was doing a fair bit of walking and it turned out the shoes I was wearing (flimsy little sandally things) the lack of cushioning in them sent the natural jarring of walking right up my legs so by the end of the day they were very achey.

    2. If I sit on the computer for too long not moving my legs or I am wearing tight jeans at the same time then this can make my legs ache. Answer here is to get up very regularly and walk about and look at the size of jeans I wear!! [:I]

    3. I do get achey legs if I am anaemic - are your iron levels ok??

    ditto!!
    Sometimes my legs feel weak, heavy,crampy and somehow rooted to the ground lol that make sense? i always cross my legs too, or im sat crossed leg! ive noticed though, that the less i sit around and do nothing, the worse i feel. i have to do some walking around and 'loosen' up. luckily, the Lawrence leyton software has taken the fear out of this symptom, so now it can ache all it likes! but,saying that, i must have made the pain worse with the worry cos it doesnt feel that bad anymore, and doesnt happen as much
