We've not had it as warm up in Scotland, so I've not had too many issues. I do better in the heat... But only as long as it does not get too warm then I just want to sleep xxx

Me too. I hate the heat so much.

Hi

The heat doesn't agree with me at all but I do try to keep smiling 😊 though it's hard sometimes. Take care Lynne

Definitely more tired and calves ache like mad. I think that’s a combination of heat and humidity.

Mine too, all up from ankle to top of leg. Driving me mad. Wish they would find a cure for this illness.

Could be due to the heat and especially humidity. When we were based in Cyprus my legs ached constantly through the summer — and I was much younger and fitter then ! Everyone complained of the same.

Make sure you’re drinking loads of water and although it’s painful, keep moving when you can. A magnesium supplement or magnesium spray on your legs will help.
