Spasticity

Hi all Stumnler don't shout at me lol I was wondering how spasticity if it's what I am experiencing, develops? Does it stay mild for some people? Does it come and go? Does it flare up and can it be part of a relapse or something that occurs alongside the disease? Any experience anyone?

Spasticity?

Hi everyone, just wondering if this sounds like spasticity? I wake up and my calf’s feel a bit tight. Like I have been on a long run this day before. My balance is off and I feel the need to sit down. A lot. My legs feel shattered? Does this sound like spasticity 🤷‍♀️???

Spasticity?

The past couple of nights, I have woken with my bicep hurting. Felt tight. Not really a cramp. It felt like I couldn’t extend my arm. Is that “spasticity”? Sincerely, New to this stuff
