Do you have times when your legs are heavy, like they're filled with concrete?

Do you take a blood pressure medication for Raynauds? I use to have that feeling when I was on a medication for Raynauds. My knees would also turn fire red and swell up. The same would sometimes happen to my feet and ankles. I stopped the blood pressure medication and those symptoms went away. It was better for me to live with the numbness and aches then not being able to walk any after 7 pm.

Missa...my body always feels weighted down.. when I get into bed at nite, I say to Hubby.. “oh finally, gravity is off”! I think a lot of us with Fibro have this. I hope you find some relief soon. Sending you gentle hugs🦋🌸🦋, Deb

Yes Annieko, I was diagnosed by a neurologist after extensive testing. I've been in a flare for 2 months with a myriad of symptoms that come and go. Heavy legs being one.
