Increased muscle tone in legs?

[phlebo123]

The doctor told me yesterday that I have increased tone in my leg muscles. He said probably nothing to worry about.

Does anyone know if this is just another symptom of fibromyalgia?

I also get the feeling that I have "heavy bricks" in the soles of my feet.

Thanks xxx

Hello phlebo, my massage therapist tells me I have great leg tone and if she didn't know I had fibro she would assume I worked out al lot. Lol. She also said they feel heavy and tense and my circulation isn't great. She also says my feet are very stiff.

Not sure that helps but just sharing!

Hi..that doesn't sound like a negative..you are developing your muscles,

that to me means that they (you) are getting shapely...I live in the USA..

our language meanings are quite different but if someone said that to you

here, you'd be getting one of the highest compliments..If someone tells you

that you are bad, that means ""Good"" over here..our bathroom is your toilet..

homely is very ugly over there...housemaid is an insult..we call them domestic

engineers over here... it is true..there is a lot to keeping a house, meals, schedules,

organization and such..if you have no one doing that..sometimes the job is

hired out..everyone with a job or two or three over here has a most difficult time

getting things done with school, work and or sports or clubs..it continues into

adult hood...We have some sister wives over here...Todd and I always think that

we have to marry someone who loves to be a domestic engineer..haha..if we

ever did have a sister wife..we don't care what she looks like, she just has to meet

the criteria on our list...I am most respectful to anyone who is reading that is a sister wife..the relationship of the family in that situation is to have such strong support..

Lucky are the kids to have several mommies...Lucky is the mother who can say

that the other mommies have to do the job today so they get a break, can get

out of regular life for a while and go have some fun...sister wives is a popular show

over here in the USA..it's always open for discussion...people are buzzing about

the show constantly..they make it look like fun..easy to fall into..with the medical

problems that I have, there are days when I dream of a sister wife to hold down

the fort so I can recover...haha. Tis true for me..I would vacation more, sleep in

some days and not work as hard...speaking of..I have to get some done...don't mind

me, I haven't gone to sleep yet...I had only a cat nap ...XXK

Muscle tone is the strength you have in legs, arms etc, mine are now soft and squidgy compared to 3 yrs ago as i was always 'fit' i never had to wrk out as my day to day living kept me very active, also dancing .

Now am 'deconditioning '

But also i have known some one not well who's legs became more solid and as far as aware it is like a fluid build up also .

Not so long back my right leg and ankle got fat but mainly all my foot area and it was more solid , it wouod happen as the day went on expand but yet firm, so there is different kinds just wait to see what dr says i think
