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.

your symptoms can be explained by proximal muscle weakness. The may be age related or due to vitamin d deficiency with osteomalacia. You need to visit physiotherapist for muscle strengthening for hip ad knee. Take tab vitamin d3 60000 units weekly for 6 weeks with tab shelcal ct twice a day for 1 month.
