Leg Pain

When I was initially diagnosed with CHF, it seems that I lost a great deal of muscle mass all over my body, as if whatever attacked my heart, attacked the rest of my muscles.

I find that if I get the opportunity during the day to lie down and put up my feet, my leg muscles (what is left of them) ache.  The more I do, the more they ache.  It almost seems this is happening because of the process of replenishing them with blood causes at least some of this.

I don't seem to have this issue with my upper body.  I think I will bring this issue up with my doctor next time I am there.
