Achey Joints

dirtyblue

Okay, just wanted to get some other peoples thoughts on this.

The last week or so, I have noticed that my joints feel achey, especially my hips and legs. Walking into work this morning, I felt like i had done 10 miles of walking yesterday, when in fact I did absolutely no exercise at all yesterday. When I was doing my Chalean Extreme on Sunday, about halfway through I was just totally exhausted, really hot and sweating a lot more than normal. This week is my 4 day break from Chalean so I am just doing cardio and it is nothing more than what I have normally been doing. Other than the achey joints, I am feeling fine.

I have a couple of thoughts - Lymes Disease, thyroid medicine is too low (although I just had my bloodwork done 2 months ago and it was fine), or my calcium is too low (just had that done last month and it is low normal). Does anyone have any other thoughts?

im gunna tell ya wat my mom told me to. lol. i told her the same thing and the next day she started giving me magnesium. tht stuff helps alot. u take one tablet and it helps with muscle and joints. like it repairs wat u strained in exercise maybe u should try tht. its healthy and inexpensive. and 100% natural

I am not sure if this will help you, but I find when my joints are achy and I sometimes feel fatigued it is because, for me, I did not drink enough water. A co-worker who is a health nut told me to try that and it worked.

Katie - thanks, the OTC calcium I take 2x a day has magnesium in it as well. I have been on it for 6 months. Maybe it isn't enough for the amount of exercise I'm doing?

Stang - thanks, good thought, but I drink at least 10 cups of water a day so I'm not leaning in that direction
