@a757contrail Hello, Todd. Have you had recent surgery that is causing your pain? Or did you just have pain in your legs you are trying to figure out? The reason I'm asking is I had spine surgery about 4 months ago, and after two weeks I had intense leg pain that kept me awake all night. I was prescribed Lyrica, 75mg, 3 times a day, and within 2 days it was noticeably less, and it was totally gone after the first week.

Thanks the response. A year and half ago I started experiencing pain in both legs and feet, from the knee down. I sit at work for several hours. I have little ability to get up and stretch my legs regularly at work. My symptoms are:
Aches and pain. Pain can be long lingering lane. .
Warm legs and some times extremely hot legs.
Restless legs, many times before bed or while driving. I take my shoes off while I’m driving. Various types of shoes.
Dry skin.
Sometimes legs are swollen.
I have these weird brown blackish markings on my legs.
I’m on Gabapintin and blood pressure medication.
If anyone has these symptoms, I would definitely want to hear about it.

I had back surgery in February 2025. A Fusion! The Neurosurgeon says X-ray always looks good. He doesn’t know what is causing all this pain all over my body. My primary care has done a MRI, X-rays, blood work and Ct scans. All they have found is I have anemia and arthritis in my neck. My feet, toes legs hurt bad and my arms and hands.
