What Causes Pain And Burning Sensation On The Legs?

I was prescribe Rivaroxaban in January for AF. The last couple of months my legs ache/ hurt and seem to slightly burn ....everywhere that blood flows!!! I only have slight AF and the side affects of taking this drug seem to be far out waying the AF symptoms!!! I am sorely tempted to stop the Rivaroxaban as the affects of the aching, dead legs are preventing me from enjoying my life as it was. I am 78 years old but considerably active...and want to stay that way...but the problems with my legs just seem to be slowing this desire down!!! This only began after I had begun taking these tablets, it s not something I have experienced before and it is so soul destroying!!!!
