Any Suggestion For Feeling Difficulty In Standing From Sitting Position?
I am a 56 y/o white female. I am recently finding it very difficult to stand from a sitting position such as a chair, church pew or toilet seat. My left thigh sometimes when I'm standing still and my hands are sometimes shaky. Nothing hurts but these symptoms are annoying and make me wonder what's going on.
