Evening happy new year to you, I seem to get very aching calf muscles a lot but never burning and you said legs shaking also when standing , Could you book to see your doctor and mention what is currently going on ??? If your shaky on your feet it might be safer to get checked in case legs gave way and you fall . Take care let us know how you get on xx

I get that burning neuropathic pain Pregablin has helped a lot but it still flares up. Freeze gel might help until you can see your GP.x

Always check both legs are same colour and temperature if not see go could be sign o DVT not saying it is but shaky weak n burning are defo signs only know as friend has just had it. Could be other stuff too but keep an eye on it swollen hot is what he told me sorry little alarm bells.

I get this all the time .treat the symptoms ie pain (for me diclofenac tablets and gel) also treat the cause . fibromyalgia .ie rest hot bath massage or a vigorously shake the muscle !!! I think it's the nature of fms also mindfulness (I hate this term) but I realised that the more exhausted I am the more I strain the worse it gets ..concrete legs with baby elephant sitting on them .x good luck 🐘

Yes it is awfully painful!!! My ankles and feet feel like acid is pour over them and so painful to walk on or to touch!! So taking it easy not over doing it! Warm Epsom salts (magnesium) helps a little. Sorry to hear you are struggling with it too!! Please check out the petition I have just posted. They need 100,00 signatures to raise Fibromyalgia in the house of commons.

Hi, I get all manner of pain, aching one time, sharp the next, moves around too, I had shooting pain from inside of elbow to my oxter earlier, get pain in knees, ankles, wrists, neck,,shoulders, back, hips,I have experienced burning in my wrists. I m not on pain medication due to sensitivity, but others on here may be able to advise you on that.
