Had a doctors appt today with my GP. She said my heart was beating fast (I drove myself all the way up there in panic mode cause of my legs) and did an EKG which came out normal. I hope that does'nt have anything to do with my legs. i hate this fear!!! i forgot to say anything to my doc about it. I don't know  Any suggestions???? |
I'd put a call into my doctor and tell her about your legs. You're obviously "driving yourself crazy" worrying about them. Your heart is okay, evidently, since the EKG came out fine. I don't know what time it is where you are, but leave a message if you need to....Your leg muscles just might be tight from the position you were sitting in--and your worrying might be making it worse. I'm not a medical doctor, but I suspect it's nothing major. But I can understand your concern. Try to do things to keep your mind off it until you can talk to/see the doctor about it. Okay?
