Angry Has anyone experienced severe muscle pain at the begining of induction?

I started dieting, working out with weights and walking back in December to get my newly diagnosed diabetes under control. I lost about 12 pounds and stalled for three weeks. I read DANDR and decided to give it a try about a month ago. I started Induction and on the second day I was in ketosis but I started having severe neck and shoulder pain like sore pulled muscles. It continued to get worse and by the end of the first week I couldn't stand it anymore so I got out of ketosis and the pain went away within 2 days. I did manage to lose 10 more pounds.

After a couple weeks I decided to try induction again. last week I started induction on Thursday morning and was in ketosis by lunchtime Friday but thistime the muscle pain started in my legs and groin. By Sunday afternoon the pains was unbearable. It fealt like a bruise but there was no sign of bruising. I stopped induction and this morning the pain began to subside.

The only thing I can think of is I briskly walked 3 miles on the treadmill Thursday morning when starting induction. The time before I had lifted weights the day I started induction.

Does going into ketosis with exerted muscles cause problems like this?

I think I will try one more time after I recover from this last try but this next time I will not do any excercising several days before starting induction.
