Was In Beach, Felt My Legs Went Weak, Could Not Get Up On My Own. Thighs Feel Sore And Painful. Take Hormone, Antidepressant. Problem?
I was at the beach yesterday. It was hot but the wind was blowing and I felt ok. Until I sqatted down to pick up a shell... well my legs went weak and I could not get up. I tried to grab hold of something to pull myself up but could not get up on my own. never has happened before. Now today my thighs are sooo sore, feels like I've run a marathon! I take a hormone and an antidepressant. Any ideas?

Hello,
Thanks for the query to H.C.M. Forum.
Since , how many days , you are taking hormones and anti depressant drugs?
Weakness and paresis may be due to hormones ( steroids),
Thrombo-embolism may be one reason,
peripheral neuropathy may be one reason.
Hypertension.
So , without detail history , it is very difficult to diagnose some disease.

Good luck.
