Hi Holly,

I have had a similar thing in my calfs- it feels like the muscles are really tight. I can still stretch my legs etc. but they get really sore, so I can relate to what you're saying. Also, the more I focussed on it, the worse it seemed to get. I suggest you have a nice hot bath as that will help your muscles relax and then I found that a hot water bottle and a film to distract me helped. I know how awful it is- every time it happens to me, I am convinced that it is something serious!! The doc doesn't seem to think so :)

Hope you feel better xx
