Title: leg pain
Post by: sullidog on August 10, 2010, 07:35:49 PM

I'm noticing after I sit a real long time, like for example I work at a pc all day so my job requires me to sit. I've noticed I start to get sore in both legs from the knee down. I wouldn't say it's pain, it's just like this annoying sore feeling. Anyone know what is going on? PTH is 500 which is still a bit high but I think it wouldn't be hi enough to cause this? Potassium is also 4.4 and calcium is at 9.
Any ideas?

Old age ?  :rofl;  Sounds like you are just getting stiff from sitting for so long.

Could it be side effects from any meds you are taking?  There are some that cause joint pain.  Hope it gets better.

My 13 year old would consider you you to be waaaayy old at 17 LOL. You should try taking some breaks just to walk around for a few minutes when you can. Sitting like that for long hours is surely gonna have some type of effect  in the circulation of your legs/feet. It could be nothing or it could be something else. Arthritis etc... Make sure you let your Dr. know everything you feel. What may seem like nothing may be something more. But, I hope it's nothing. Sake your legs out too under the desk. Hate to say this my dear lol, but at 27 you're gonna start experiencing some "getting older" aches and pains. AAh... the glory of aging. Oh yeah, If I'm in a place with air conditioning on cold for a long time my joints start to ache. It feels like the coldness sorta "sets in" your bones.
