Maybe it's just me (never asked others before), but spasticity always hits both sides (arms and/or legs) at the same time for me.

Is it possible you are experiencing sciatica or something else? Have you been checked out by your GP?

I'm assuming it's spasticity because I have been having it in my hand as well (right hand that is numb) and the Baclofen helps somewhat...just not enough for me to get comfortable. I guess I could take 30 mg at a time, but it would make me very woozy if I did. Baclofen is one of the drugs on the $4 generic list so that helps since I won't have any insurance after the end of the year.
