Hi
I'm Diane. 49 yrs old, 5'6", 119 lbs. Non smoker. For several years I have been having intermittent pain in my legs. It's not restless leg syndrome. This pain shows up in a different quadrant (i.e. Front thigh or back of thigh, front shin or back of shin), there's no pattern as to where or when. I'm having the pain currently but haven't had it in 6 weeks. Heat sometimes helps but at times, the pain is intolerable and impossible to sleep. Sometimes Tylenol will ease the pain, sometimes a pain killer is necessary. This time around it is painful even when standing but usually I feel it only when horizontal. I'm not terribly active so it's not a hamstring pull or anything exercise related. My daily prescriptions are an antidepressant (which I've been on for 10yrs) and an adult acne medication for the past 2 yrs. Please help!
