Mine feel like they ache, and are being strangulated and almost feels like there are blood clots although I can’t be sure there are any. And then I feel a twitchy kind of pain but a little like a heartbeat. It’s horrible and scary. I don’t know when to take it as a warning for heart Attack or does Fibro feel this way.

I experience this as well...my body goes through cycles where I will feel all over my body as if I'm going to have a heart attack but when I go to the er there is no sign. It really is hard to decipher what is fibro and what isn't but it is always best to get checked out. I hope you feel better soon!
Since you are pregnant I would mention this to your Dr. The Dr can always do a simple ultrasound on your legs to make sure you don't have DVT(deep vein thrombosis). However what you describe for symptoms are pretty much what is termed RLS (restless leg syndrome) which usually runs hand and hand with fibromyalgia patients. Again discuss this with your Dr. He/she should be able to answer your concerns. I hope my suggestion is helpful. Fibro Hugggggs ❣️
Most of my pain is my knee and calf all the time.
It can happen at any time, but it's likely fibro as well as restless legs
i have that too. i actually had a blood clot 5 years ago so i know what to feel for when i comes to that. for sure i have restless leg syndrome, i've had that for years before the fms diagnosis. right now my calves feel swollen and pulsing.
