What Causes Pain In The Legs And Knees?

I am Edward Eubanks, 80 years, about 10 days ago, the muscles in my legs both above and below the knee would hurt so bad when I stood or walked. I am active with 60 head of cattle to take care of. I almost died from drug induced hepitius from taking the antibotic cyproflaxin about 10 years ago and was told to stay away from this family of drugs. I have been taking high blood pressure medicine Losartan-hctz 100-12.5 and found that I could get gout from this drug--very remote but possible. I have not taken any of this medicine for 10 days and I am feeling a lot better-less pain-however the pain comes back at times and is severe, almost cannot walk. It was severe around lunch and is almost gone now,,,,however I took a moltrin around lunch Phone YYYY Address 4479 FM 417 W Center, Texas 75935 Thanks for any assistance you might give.
