Hi, I am new too. I had the same question. Mine feel like they are cramping every time I stand up. Then it gets “better” but it’s always there. Just started happening with me too. I have been diagnosed with Fibromyalgia for 20 years but probably had it longer. I read some of the related posts. It reminded me of Epsom salt rub. I definitely want to try that. Taking baths is out since I would never be able to lift my self up! Someone suggested to me to get a tall bucket (5 gal) and soak each leg in one.
Yes I do. This came later for me but it is awful.
