A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question 💭

My legs start shaking and feeling weak so I have to sit or lay down. I am also have severe lower back pain. Is anyone else experiencing this? Is there anything I can do for it?

I have leg weakness also. I am getting injections in my knee for the next 3 weeks. I am also getting some physical therapy after that. I then will continue my exercise on my own at Planet Fitness if I can. Right now I feel like it will be possible because I had a good day.

I have leg weakness . My legs were so strong and fit ,I played sports for years. Now for the past 6 years or more because of fibromyalgia my legs have become weak . I plan to start water exercises and water aerobics. I am sure hoping that helps.

Sometimes with Fibromyalgia you could potentially suffer from siatica or something to do with back problems that of which causes your legs to give out on you because with lower back pain it effects your hips and legs because your back then struggles to hold your upper torso straight. So in turn it inflames your hips and legs in the process! Try swimming, physio and or see a chiropractor.
