Lately, my legs have gotten very crampy and feels like there are electric shocks going through them. My knees are also killing me. Has anyone else had something similar. Starting to scare me. Thanks

I have that and I think it's my Bart coming back. Does it feel like all that is mostly from the knees and down?

Yes, but sometimes it will go up as well to the top of my leg. Hurts like heck!

My legs are weak in general right now and that was also my Bart. Sometimes I have nerve pain and achiness in the upper legs, but shocks, cramping, aching, and nerve pain begins at the knee and down.

Thanks so much. Does the pain wake you up at night?
 
Posted by Cattail (Member # 24357) on :
 
No, because my shoulders and neck are worse, so they wake me up before the legs would. The legs make it difficult to go to sleep though and when I get out of bed in the morning it is like hell with the legs, so painful.

I have the same thing from my knees down... but on a bad day it can go up to my hip! I hate that feeling. And yes it wakes me up at night b/c I cannot find a comfy position. My heels hurt like heck too! [Frown]

Yes, I have that as well...It sounds like its nerve pain/damage from the lyme disease....Can you find relief from taking certain things that help with the nerve pain: B vitamins including sublingual B12; there's a prescription product called Metanx that diabetics use; also have you tried higher doses of Vitamin D; neurontin or lyrica.....

So sorry you're hurting
