Charley horse

I have a baclofen pump living in my belly to deal with baseline spasticity. But I am still plagued with painful charley horse cramps every night, and often during the day. It seems as soon as I get into bed and start to relax, ol' Charley rears up. Sometimes I just have to sit up, or get up, move my legs around, and that takes care of it. But other times, I can be up for hours in pain. My neuro says to stretch, and be sure I'm hydrated, and yeah, I do all of that. Maybe this is just something I have to live with. I'm hoping someone out there has a miracle treatment for these leg cramps. I like horses, just not this kind.

@zenhead , I don't know whether there's anything here to help you :- https://www.mstrust.org.uk/a-z/spasticity-and-spasms You may also want to get your Magnesium levels checked, as a supplement may help.

@zenhead I take a magnesium supplement and also use a magnesium spray directly on calves it really helps me along with regular stretching. Hope you get relief soon!
