Rjoneslaw, it's Fancy1959. Personally I know that some of my symptoms are worse first thing in the morning. I always believe personally that it takes a bit to loosen up the stiffness in the muscle spasticity that the inactivity of sleeping weighs down with first thing in the morning. Sometimes I believe realizing what lies ahead of us, our schedule for the day upcoming, can actually cause Stress and Anxiety when it seems our body just won't snap to attention, and move as gracefully or listen to us at all as it has done in the past. I believe personally that it is stress and anxiety but it is often caused buy our MS and the refusal of our bodies to do as we ask.
