This is a weird one but I'm hoping someone can help.

I have had this for around 6 weeks. On waking each morning I walk to the bathroom, in doing this my calves are so stiff and heavy I can barely walk, it does improve within 30mins or do but the pain stays with me constantly. Its not pain exactly it feels like my calf muscles have 1oo weight lead weights attached to them/stiffness.

I've not taken up any new or extra exercise for months, average 4/5 sessions at the gym and a weekly hike of around 8 miles.

Really hoping someone can help. I've had my mattress for three years so its not that (I'm assuming if it was I would have back pain and would disappear quite early in the day)
