Awwww, poor Sarah.

That's just not good at all! You're a young mother and you don't have time for pain. So sorry -- hope you find some relief very soon.

Sounds like spasticity IMO but I'm not a doctor. If it is, go the the National MS Society and type in exercises in their search engine. Print out the pages that were made by therapists to cover joints and muscles. Once you do them a few times it only takes 10 minutes give or take to do them.

As, Ewizabth mentioned, Baclofen is prescribed for spasticity.

Take care.

OH my poor Sarah... HUGS~!

What have you tried? And have you seen a Rhuematolgist?? They are amazing at dx.

I take Methocarbamol for spasticity with 3 200mg of ibruprofin and both don't make me drowsy. Sometimes my ankles just lock up and hurt. So I do stretching then break down and take the Methocarbamol/or neurontin with it.

Let us know my sweet one

Jan

Sarah,

I'm so sorry you're having such pain! When I have pain from spasticity I take Baclofen but it's an everyday treatment for long term. I also take an antidepressant that helps with some pain. I haven't had to take a nerve pain medicine yet.

Maybe try some Advil or something like that to get you through until this passes?

Feel better soon Sweetie!
