unbearable leg pain

Did anyone experience leg pain that prevented sleep or doing physical activities?  How did you cope or get the pain to go away?

Drink LOTS of water. Staying hydrated is the only thing that helps.

I do have legs cramps, but magnesium is a life saver here. The best and fastest working is the powered one but tablets are also good.

Omg I thought I was by myself I asked the dr if it(leg pain) was common, he said no  I have unbearable leg pain that start from the lower back & basically works itself down my legs.  I feel hopeless. No matter how much walking, stretching, drinking water n milk eating fruits n veg, taking warm baths and massaging NOTHING HELPS

I have really bad pain from my hips, lower back and down my legs. I can barely walk. I get little sleep at night.  I am only at 19 weeks.  I can see bed rest for the rest of my pregnancy heading my way very shortly.

Yes it gets so bad that I literally Dont sleep I stay awake all night crying and end up going down stairs and sitting in my lazy boy chair and watch the sun come up. It's horrible and there's nothing I can do about it
