It could be fibromyalgia-I was dxd with that in mid 80s...later dxd with MS in late 08...
Are you on any meds for this? If it's fibro, Lyrica is usually what docs prescribe. Drugs like zanaflex or baclofen are precribed for spasticity.
Make sure you write down your symptoms with dates of onset and dissipation for your doc.
And be your own advocate-yes, stress increases symptoms of both of these diseases...but still symptom management through exercise, stretching, and rest and good nutrition are ways to help also.
Keep us informed and don't give up-keep digging for answers, even if you have to go to a neuro or rheumatologist.
