don't do too much heat all at once. 15-20 min on and then off. you don't want to dry the muscle out. and, moist heat is better than dry.

i hope your dr works at dx'ing this for you.
Thank for the advice, the only problem with wet heat is that it makes my legs too weak, pins and needle feeling even though I do it some still.
