I'm starting to think circulation (lack of) is playing a role, for me anyway.
We all know pain meds relax muscles. When I had colostomy created, my stomach would vibrate every time I tried to get up for therapy. I learned to have the nurse give me half dose of delotid/morphine type drug. They learned with me. Amazingly lt stopped them dead for hrs.
I currently take 7 20mg baclofen per day yet spasms won't quit, and yes I exercise swimming 300+ meters per day.
WHY did my leg spasms increase with MS when my spinal cord is clearly cut at C7???
HEAT - I was overheated to the max a few weeks ago. I hardly got any spasms in legs when getting out of car. Heat lowers thickness of motor oil, does it do the same to blood which would increase CIRCULATION??
