So, I'm roughly 4 months into treatment. I would say maybe a week, week and a half ago, I started to notice that in the mornings when I was ready to get up, my legs would be so stiff and in pain. As time has gone by, I've just noticed the symptom getting worse, almost unbearable. And I'll feel really lethargic. Now when I experience this, usually about 15 minutes after dosing, I'm fine. But like today, I skipped my dose and I've been laid up all day! My legs hurt so bad, especially in the knees and thighs. I forced myself to go for a walk a few hours ago and that did seem to help. I was just wondering if anyone else experienced this and if anything helped??
