Jumping Muscles

[ribbitt513]

Hi everybody just wondering what everybody else does when you have the jumpies. I'm sure there is a name for it but for the life of me, I don't know what it is. I have been having jumping muscles and pain for 3 days now. Today is my first day back to work. I just don't know what to do to calm it down and ease the pain. Thanks for your help. Kelly

I usually just sit back relax and enjoy the show, it's all a part of my MSnormal. Sometimes they are annoying or worse) tho.

I 4get what they are called, knew but cogfog is in control.

Hello ribbitt,

Have you tried taking baclofen? I have muscle spasms and jerks. I am on baclofen, I think it helps some but not totally.

Hope you feel better soon.

Probably worth talking to your neuro about.

Magnesium is a natural muscle relaxer so increasing your intake may help, I know it has for me. I take 500mg 2X/day. Nothing to lose by trying AND you can do it while you wait for an appt with your neuro!

Jumping!!

Most of the time I just ignore jumping muscles, but when I am tired and they area driving me crazy I take some ativan.
It is prescribed....I don't take it all the them time, just when it gets bad. It works well for me.
