I am taking little trips...couch to bathroom and then back....couch to kitchen and then back. Each time I elevate leg for a few, give it a break {no pun intended}

And you are right, each time I get "back up" it's a new adventure...but quickly loostens up.

I guess I am lucky......I really don't have any pain....just tightness around the ankle and knee.

I must admit though...my stride isn't pretty..........I feel so deformed ! I am sure it will all smoooth out.
