My symptons are: have difficulty going up and down stairs,difficulty getting up from chairs, my hands ,fore arms go numb and makes it difficult to use hands and causes a deep burning pain. When I go to bed my hips and thighs go numb and cause pain so I am turning all night. This happens on both sides.
