Spasticity & Kesimpta

Hi guys I’ve recently been diagnosed with MS so still coming to terms with my diagnosis. I’ve been experiencing spasticity in both legs for a few weeks now. I’m wondering, when I start taking Kesimpta, will the spasticity I’ve been experiencing start to ease? I’ve started taking magnesium and also using magnesium lotion, but if anyone else has any other tips please let me know! Thanks so much xx

Theoretically, no it wont ease. Here are my suggestions for spasticity: Have cool showers only. Magnesium Glyconate No caffeine Effervescent vit C. Protein after walk not before. Plan ahead and use exercise remit wisely. Stretches Rest breaks mid walk

@emilyjoanna...sorry to say it but @RC83 is correct. Kesimpta prevents future attacks. You need to control it through diet, exercise and minimal amount of heat. Let your neuro know if you don't feel good because he/she can switch your DMT. Minimize the levels of stress be it will hurt you. Good Luck!
