unable to stand still

7 Replies

Since I first had this cronic fatigue aged 15. I am 50 now I have been unable to stand still. I struggle to wait at bus stops or in ques without having to pace.I can quite describe the sensation but maybe it is a bit like restless legs which I sometimes get when very tired at night. Has anyone else had this?

I find it hurts to stand still.  I absolutely hate it - my hips, my knees, my ankles, my back all hurt within a few moments of standing still. Perhaps not quite the same thing but it's been the same for as long as I can remember - right from late childhood.

Always 'on the go' symptoms, 'can' be down to adrenals.

Thanks I am on Nax now but no improvement yet but it had been 35 years so early days.

I get very agitated in a queue, and have to keep pacing, a couple of steps to the right , a couple to the left; just can't stand still, and if the queue doesn't start moving soon my pulse goes up to tachycardia.  I also have cfs
