Yes. I get muscle cramps, not in my legs, but a little higher up in my backside. If I start out for a short walk, I very shortly get these pains and they get severe enough I have to stop and rest for a couple of minutes before I can resume walking. I am not short of breath when this happens. I chalk it up to lack of the ability of my heart to pump enough oxygenated blood to the large muscles you use when you're walking. I admit I didn't know these particular posterior muscles were so important since I was so used to sitting on them while watching sports on TV, but I have a whole new appreciation now.

good luck

I get leg pains after work in the evening. I don't stand on my feet all day, but I do have to get up from my desk quite frequently. Sometimes, by the end of the day, I can hardly stand.
