What is restless legs syndrome?

I obviously don't have this. Must be the only thing I don't have!

My legs are so heavy today, it's like dragging lead around, I'm 49 yrs old and feel like 89 yrs. not having a good day, hopefully a better day tomorrow.

Hi lucy my legs feel like i have lead boots on when walking. When i lie in bed they feel like they are sinking in my bed.

Ialways thought it was because i walk quite far through the week, but my little one has been off with sickness bug so i havent left the house since sunday, so it cant be that.

RLS is when your legs feel jump, twitch, jerk, whatever. Mine have a kind of crawling feeling to start with and then the jerking etc starts. I can't keep them still. Not sure if anyone else has the heavy feeling you mention, I'm sure someone will come along and tell you soon :) Google it and see if you can relate to it at all.

Hope you do have a better day tomorrow xxx
