The answer may be, Daaa? My muscles (thigh, calf) have burning pain and weakness when I walk for more than a minute or so. I"ve been checked for PAD, no problem. Spine does not have significant stenosis. Are these symptoms part of fiber?

I have a low back injury that has caused the same exact symptoms but I think its exasperated by the fibro. Especially the neuropathyI my feet..

Theismust be as I have the same thing ,Have,it found any relief from this by mine is compound with a back fracture . I use ice On them ,heat at times and Arnica gel .I hurt so bad today I'm calling Dr.Tina for Prednisone this has helped in past.Luck to us all

Lioness. I am so sorry for you. I have episodes or flares. Some last a couple of days and some a month or more. I feel older than I am. I am 75. I have given up on pretending I don't hurt. I think pretending I am pain fee just to get thru a dinner with family is not worth it

Thanks for your words I'm 75 ,today I feel like an old women Im usually very active.I'll get past this,always do but it's nice to hear some others know what I'm going thru today.Thanks Lioness

Sounds like Neuropathy, I have it in both legs,I have to sit down in the shower and sit to brush my teeth. when my feet burn I sit with them on an ice pack.What helps the calves sometimes is a cream for sore muscles. CVS makes one called exactly that. Muscle Rub in a green box. Theres also Ben Gay.I have Fibromyalgia too but I don't think the fibromyalgia is in the calves.Its terrible to ache all the time. 24/7.First thing Get a Nerve Conduction Test. That will tell you wether you have Neuropathy or not.Its a process of iliminatiom.Good Luck. from the sunny state
