Can anyone shed some light on this, or whether you have experience this before.
I'm RRMS - about 7 years since dx, but what I want to explain refers to when I'm pretty much symptom-free
When I am sitting or lying down, I feel ok , as in there's no spasticity. But when I stand up, my legs (around the hamstrings) tighten up and I can't move. I have to forcefully tighten my legs (it almost feels like I'm stretching my legs while standing up). After maybe 15-30 seconds, the spasticity goes away and I can resume walking as
Can anyone relate to this?
Is this a symptom of MS?
