    While I haven't had it as a result of exercise, I did experience it during a pregnancy. My doctor recommended seeing a massage therapist (I was very skeptical). One session made it go away. I was amazed by the results.

    Pregnancy was my first experience with it as well. I cried for days. Could'nt sit, couldn't lay down...it was awful, but that was 17 yrs ago!

    Come to think of it, I had been around my current weight now. I'm 5' tall cw is 131 and my gw is 112 (pre-pregnancy weight). I sure hope a few more pounds will banish it forevah.

    I *did* massage my quad & it felt better temporarily. It looks like I'll have to rest myself for awhile though :cry: That's fantastic that you were able to find relief through massage:drinker:
