I dont soak--can't get in and out of the tub. I tried magnesium--it didn't help the spasms, and it did something (can't remember what) to me gastronintestinally (is that a word?).

I would NEVER recommend that anyone else use a med off-label, much less purchase it across the border...I probably need to listen to myself. I guess I'm more scared of those spasms than the effects of the quinine, but I know, that's ignorant. *sigh

I communicate better with my PCP than my neuro (understatement) but I don't think my PCP will prescribe to what probably are MS symptoms. But I can at least ask his opinion about the various muscle relaxants.

I don't guess there's anything out there pharmaceutically that doesn't have a certain percentage of dreaded possible side effects, is there?
