hip/ back spasticity is so painful!

Hi all Im new here.I was diagnosed with RRMS In 2016 while pregnant with my 3rd baby. It was totally out of the blue I had never been investigated before for it. Im on Tecfidera since she was born october 2016 and have had no new lesions. Ive had a weaked left side since the first lesion in 2016. i also had lots of older lesions that I had previouslybut never knew . I'm healthy do pilates and was very active up to about 8 months ago. regular walks 4 times a week and running after 3 kids under 8! I've had pain and what I think is spasticity in my hips for ages.My neuro did mris and xray but all were ok The last week my back has gone in horrific spasm and pain that I could only walk bent over! My gp started gabapentin and then had to add baclofen and valium...Im a bit lost now.Its improved slightly but is still very painful and i can't walk properly and still have back/ hip pain . What do i do? I've emailed my neurologist but i haven't heard from her. I have 3 kids and my husband works so I need to get mobile and well again.Any help or advice would really be welcome .Im down in the dumps which is not like me at all

Ohh Laura back spasms what!! I really can’t imagine the extreme pain. I get them in my quads and that hurts enough they straighten out uncontrollably. I definitely feel for you. Best Jorge
