Suggest Treatment For Severe Leg Pain When Diagnosed With Fibromyalgia

For 3 months now every since Itrid to go back to bartending after taking 3 years off, because of my fibromyalgia, my legs hurt so bad that I have been to the emergency room 3 times. I am 52. They have checked for blood clots but its negative. It starts as very sharp burning pains in random spots in my thighs, then if im on my legs for an extended period of time they feel like I ran an entire marathon.

Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
In my opinion, you should get done vitamin b 12 level, calcium and vitamin d 3 levels.
Because deficiency of vitamin b 12, vitamin d3 and calcium can cause similar kind of leg pains.
If deficiency then you will need supplements.
Drink oral rehydration solution (ORS) to supplement sodium and potassium because deficiency of these trace elements can also cause similar symptoms.
Don't worry, you will be alright with all these.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks..
