A member asked:
My body feels like i have just done an intense workout but i have only been resting, arms and legs feel heavy and exhausted. should i be concerned?

Concerning: This could be potentially very serious from a cardiac condition such as heart failure. It could be less emergent but still concerning such as from hypothyroidism (under active thyroid) or it could be a medication side effect (nortriptyline). See your doctor as soon as possible.
