Hi everyone I was wondering if anyone can help me. I have been having deep throbbing pains in my shins since I was pregnant with my child (9 years). It only seemed to start during my pregnancy I hadnt had any pains like this before. At the time I only felt pain at night time but the pain kept me awake at night, I saw the doctor at the time who didnt seem concerned so I just got on with it. I am still having these pains at night but also when I am resting my legs during the day, i.e I am sitting down. At times the pain can be very severe so much that I cant sleep and sometimes I feel a sharp pain in my left shin that I can pinpoint. I have recently seen a new G.P who diagnosed restless leg syndrome and gave me quinine sulphate. This hasnt helped and I am not confident with his diagnosis because he didnt even look at my legs. Has anyone else come across this? or have any idea whats wrong?
Thankyou in advance
