Health knowledge made personal
I am not a physician - what you describe can be the result of any number of factors including the medical issues for wich you are taking medications. Mixtures of some meds can cause drug reactions [see this post http://cli.gs/za5UhR]
You might try a glass of warm milk at night before bed-time and checking with your medical provider to see if it might be a reaction to the meds.
Hi - As I said above I'm not a physician and can not tell you what is causing your aches.
I can ask: do you stretch? do yoga or pilates? do the exercises in proper form? work on separately strenghtening your quads?
I can also suggest you look at this page and specifically at the Ambrotose and BounceBack products: http://bit.ly/beinghealthy

I have this problem too, and am not a physician. My current thought is that while I worked out nearly four hours a week, it may be from sitting long periods of time at the computer. I also am now starting to take at least one banana a day for the potassium to see if that doesn't help. I know my thighs are tighter than most people, so perhaps I need more stretching exercises as well, after workouts. Lastly, I have slight numbness on the top of my right thigh, which I am told could be a pinced nerve. I am doing more stretching exercises of the pelvis to help relieve that.
I will keep you all posted.
I have something just like it. I went to my neurologist and she thinks I have "restless leg syndrome"..Can come from a chemical reaction in the brain or lack of iron, magnisium and a few other things. I began taking a drug call Mirapex and at first it seemed to help but now the pain is back. I'm waiting to call her this morning. It even hurts to walk during the day. I'm an active 71 year old but these days feel like 101.
Good luck...Anna

I have been hurting all night with upper leg pain for about two weeks now. In the past I had been aching on the sides of my hips and knees but not lately. It seemed to move to the top of my thighs and hurts all night but when I get up it goes away and all during the day while I am at work it doesn't hurt either. Sometimes my legs ache when I am tired or hurt some durning the day but that is usually in my leg near my knee. I go to bed feeling fine but about a few hours later my upper thighs are aching so much. I hate to think what it will be like when I am older. I have a left severe arthritic hip. I just found out I have a hypothyroid problem, which may explain my tiredness durning the day and muscle aches that I have been having. I have been on synthroid for 7 days now. I am feeling better during the day, I can walk better, and I have energy and feel like doing more. I work full time as a teacher assistant. I am 62 yrs old. I have been exercising with strengthining cords on my legs pretty regular but that never seemed to bother me. I dread going to bed at night because I know I am going to wake up hurting. What could it be? I am also on Lipitor and meds for High blood pressure.
