Hi, I wonder if anyone can help me? After having a viral infection, I have found that I have been suffering from terrible leg cramps and spasms, as well as pains, tingling and itchiness in my legs. It will be really bad and annoying for a few days, and then go away again. The pains and tingling are usually accompanied by fatigue and irritability. I know MS is about the worst thing they could be and it could just be stress or a vitamin deficiency or "restless legs syndrome", but has anyone else had these problems - and have they found anything to help?
Thanks.
Thanks.

What virus did you have? Did they treat it?
Do you still have the tingling?

LYB,
Hi......I am suffering from similar symptoms after having a stomach virus. Did your symptoms develop shortly after, like in a matter of days after the virus? I have muscle weakness/stiffness, muscle twitching/spasms, tremors, tingling, pins and needles and these wonderful stabbing pains which occur at random. I thought at first a virus attacked my CNS because in a matter of weeks, my symptoms went away and I felt much better but now they have returned and I have developed new symptoms. I'm going through the testing process right now and haven't been dx with anything. I wish at the time I was being treated for the stomach flu in the emergency room they would have tested to see what virus it was but at that time, I didn't posess any other symptoms. There are lots of viruses that can cause the symptoms that you are having, but you would have to be tested for that shortly after the attack to see what type of virus it is. Your right, MS is the worst it can be, but either way, you should see your doctor and see if you can get to the bottom of this. Good luck.......

Walking and if necessary, a blood circulation medication may help
