Title: Muscle aches?
Post by: Miss Lemon on May 03, 2016, 09:14:59 PM

I've been shopping after work today; just wandering around shops and buying bits and bobs. Nothing strenuous, no heavy bags etc and I am aching all over tonight and exhausted. I feel about 90.

This is a common scenario for me these days. Am I alone in this?

Nope.  For months I've had low back pain.  Intermittently.  Worse on gardening, even though I use a kneeler when working.  I had to stop today because I could feel it getting worse.  No stiffness - yet  ::)

A few years ago I was woken in the night by deep pains in both thighs.  It made me cry out silently which was fortunate as we were in a B&B  :o This happened at night, OK in the day.  It took 2 years for me to realise it was due to bending over cabinets at antique fairs  ::).  How is your posture generally?
