I don't walk much anymore, but I know what you mean. It's probably only temporary and due to weather changes.

Sending Healing Hugs..

My bane of my MS are the head pains. I'm Relapsing/Remitting MS, the head pain doesn't dull unless I take prescribed marijuana. I've too tried Neurontin and a few other medications without success.
(I take Cesamet, pill form THC, prescribed through a pain doctor here)

Barb
My left side is effected too, but when I really push it, then both legs go stiff.
Do you get it in both of just the left?

Tkrik - I can really relate exactly to what you said. It's so hard to plan outings when you don't know what your legs will do. Do you have a cane handy for when/if your legs pack up?

Even though I'm not dx'd with anything, can my neuro prescribe something for the leg stiffness? This is my worst consistent sx.
The head pain is subsiding now thank goodness!!

I am no doctor but I watch them on TV.

For your stiffness, maybe ask about Baclofen? It may help.

I take both baclofen for the MS hug and gabapentin (neurontin generic) for pain.

Hope you have a good doctor visit.
