I've been taking Gabapentin for spasticity and spasms and it helps. I also take magnesium and make sure I drink a glass of milk per day. I have a Dr friend that has had a hip replacement (like me) and has Lupus and she said that if I have issues with Gabapentin to try the slow release version gralise. I called in my Dr to see if they could switch. It seems like my blood pressure is up and I feel warmer. Worth it to be able to do more! I was taking Rebif most recently for MS but will be switching to Ocrevus as it seems I am transitioning from RRMS to SPMS.
