Erin, I don't know if you've read this information or not, but maybe it might be helpful.

As you know, everyone is different. So, there is no blanket yes or no answer to your question.

I can answer for myself in that I have good days and bad days. My worst days are when I get over heated (I have Uhthoff's syndrome) and when I have done too much, and when I am just plain tired. The spasticity rears it's ugly head.

As for the fatigue, I have it all the time. It's my #1 complaint, with pain being #2. I take 300-400 mg of Provigil a day to try and combat it.

You might want to take a look at the big picture and see just exactly what's causing your spasticity and fatigue. You are on Copaxone? I experienced severe fatigue from the C and had to quit. I couldn't take it. It's not a common side effect, but it's there.

That's the short answer!
