Tracy, I'm familiar with what you describe. Sometimes I stand up from my computer chair, forgetting to be careful, and rush towards the door, and after two steps I hit the floor. But other times I feel the weakness coming over me. I'm not sure if I only feel it when it's more intense, or when I'm paying closer attention, or if there's something else going on. But I've definitely said, many times, to my husband, "Wait, let me stand up and see if I can walk."

I never know really what's coming. Until I actually go to use the muscles, though, I don't know how they are going to behave.
