Maybe it's not anxiety, but that doesn't mean it indicates a serious problem. Sounds like possible overuse of the leg muscles, or perhaps an injury. However, anxiety can indeed cause muscle weakness / fatigue as well.

I have been able to convince myself my arms are weak or my legs are super weak, almost anything really. It feels so real when I hyper focus on something. That being said, if you really think there is a physical cause get it checked out so you don't have to worry about it.

I agree, see a doctor if you think there's no logical reason for it otherwise.

My strongest symptom by far is legs That feel like they aren't going to work. I remember during a panic attack one time saying this cant be anxiety...guesd what? It was.

See your doctor if you think it isn't right.
