I'm 34 and have always been a very keen runner and swimmer. Last year in May I developed unexplained pain in my lower legs. It started with a tingling feeling in my feet. Followed by a full and painful feeling in my calves. The pain moved to my shins and gave a burning feeling. I had doppler ultrasounds done to check the veins and arteries in my legs. A CT scan showed no vascular compressions. MRI showed no cause for symptoms and no features of Demyelination. I had to stop exercising completely. After 4/5 months the symptoms disappeared and I was able to run, swim, cycle and hike again. It is May again and from one day to another the tingling feeling in my feet came back. A day later the pain in my calves and withing days the burning feeling in my shins. I have not done any exercise for the last 3 months due to something unrelated. I don't know what to do or where to go for this medical mystery. Bloods tests last year showed no diabetes, no auto immune diseased, normal thyroid, normal iron and B vitamins. Nerve study was a normal result. Last year I noticed that the pain is not getting worse during the exercise, it get's bad after and especially at night. The burning feeling in my shins and fullness feeling in my calves keep me up at night. Anyone an idea what this can be or in which direction I need to search? I do have pelvic congestion syndrome, Ulcerative colitis and Raynaud.
