Pains

[Rose1bud]

Suffering with terrible pains down the back of my legs right down to my ankles when I walk only as soon as I rest they disappear does anyone have these symptoms

[Nettac]

Yes I did when my knees and tendons were really inflamed. Even hurt to touch backs of legs. Seems to have worn off a bit with methotrexate...though some issues remain.

Are your knees sore?

Thank u for your comment no my knees don’t hurt just pains feels like I have climbed a mountain

As Nettac says it could be tendon related, or even one of your meds if you've started a new one recently or increased an established one. I had leg problems on leflunomide, never had any before apart from a ruptured Achilles' tendon a year before my RD diagnosis. Maybe worth a mention at your next Rheumy appointment, it might be something your Rheumy will recognise straight away or if not arrange testing for you.
