Thanks for the info and I'm very glad you are able to sit with out so much pain.
Right now, sitting seems to be the worst thing to do but I get so tired and exhausted from trying to stand and walk. When I do get up, the pain comes quickly. It seems to attack my ham strings & hips on both legs so I have to stop and sit down. People do not understand this kind of pain when they see me in agony? I am going to try stretching the legs as you mentioned. I am glad to hear that some people do get better....hope it continues for you!
