all i know is something has gotta give............I am already sick of this and its only year 2 for me........I refuse to become a refuge from ife and hide away in my home from PAIN......
I have to much life to live...........I am knocking on 40's door and I am much to young to feel this damn old!!!!!!!!!

FFM - I do a lot of stretching exercises through out the day. I don't just do it once a day like people who go to the gym and work out. I also bought some resistance bands that have really helped me with the spasticity. Yoga is also good and I do Yoga exercises throughout the day.
I am fortunate and bless that I have a high pain tolerance and a low medication tolerance. I can get away with very little medication.
Hang in there FFM. Try to stay relaxed as the more anxious you get about the pain, the worse it becomes. (The reason I am on AD's. To keep me relaxed during the painful times).
