Want to pick all your brains! I suffer with restless legs quite regular as well as swelling and pain in my feet but the last 3 - 4 nights all the lower part of my legs and feet have felt as if the skin is going to pop! The skin feels so tight and sore that i can bearly put weight on my deet as the pain is so bad going up my legs.
This only happens in the night time though which is so strange.
Obviously i need to get and see the gp but trying to get into the only decent doctor is hard o thought id ask on here and see if anyone has had a similar thing

Is there visible swelling? This is not a symptom of Fibro, so must be checked out. It can sometimes be due to something minor but can also be a sign of something more serious.
similar problems with Restless legs, etc. I have what is called a vein pillow which raises the lower legs, keeping the knees supported but not straight. It does help a little.
The swelling is visable but only in my feet, i dont think my lower leg is swollen it just feels it.
I have seen the gp before about the swelling and they have put it down to circulation being bad and fibro. Its this feeling of the tightness in my skin i havent had before. I have spent mpst of today resting and no problem with my legs what s evet, it only jappens in the night time which is so weird!
I am going to try and remember to take some pics tonight for when i can get into the gp.
Phoned for an app today and the dr i want to see isnt free for at least 2weeks!
