Oh Snoopy you are so smart. It really sounds like that is what it is.

I was hoping to get some ideas to through at my neuro. Figuratively speaking of course.

Not really, I have had what your describing

And, dangit it can hurt.

Yeah, it does. This is the first new thing since I was dx'd 4 years ago.

I just kept getting the same old stuff flaring all the time.

Snoopy beat me to it. It sure sounds like spasticity to me. See if your neuro can call you in an rx for some Baclofen to try out. I love my Baclofen!!

Yeah but Snoopy, MS doesn't hurt. LOL. I was told that once when I was explaining this similar pain with my foot turned in and stuck that way.

The joints can hurt with spasticity and it doesn't feel too pleasant. Although I have my baclofen prescription, when I 1st start feeling this way I take my nice warm (NOT HOT) Epsom salt bath. Some times that is enough to calm the muscles for a bit. However, if my foot gets stuck turned in or I can't bend/straighten one of the joints then I resort to something a little stronger.

I hope you have heard from your doctor by now. Let us know how you do.

Hi kellijo~ Hope you feel better tomorrow.

Yup, that Snoopy is one smart cookie..... take care KJ!!

Yep, Snoopy's right on with the DX.. . I've been having it, especially at night. Guess what, I just take a couple of Bayer asprin. If you don't take it too often, Bayer works like a charm. It doesn't take all the pain away, but enough so you can fall asleep.

Feel Better Kellijo...

Yes, heard from neuro. He said to try baclofen. I had already tried the bayer by the way.(it was the only pain reliever left in my house)

I actually had a weekend mostly without pain. Cause I was comatose. My sinuses decided to act up and had to take meds for that, which knock me right out.

On a good note I got my new street bike boots last week and I finally can get them on by myself. Now we need the weather to cooperate here.

I hope you have as good of a response to Baclofen as I have. Keep in mind that it will probably make you dopey and sleepy at first. I took it in small increments until I got used to it (about a week or so). My neuro had me start at 5mg three times a day and work up to 10 mg three times a day at first.

Over the last couple of years, we have increased it to a total of 80 mg per day and I haven't had any trouble upping the dose once I adjusted to the med initially.

20% payraise for Snoopy.
