This is painful for me as I get bad spasm in my feet mainly at night

I have suffered from spasticity for a number of years. I take a variety of different drugs but I am not sure if an of them work. As I am in a wheelchair it's impossible to do any exercise. I write all my status on a mobile with a stylus as I have limited use of my right arm.

I have started using botox injections and it has made my day to day life so much better. Has anyone else tried them? I would highly recommend!

yes you can get botox injections on the NHS, you can get them every 3 months, the effects last about 8 or 9 weeks in my experience..

@Deliag @Nishnish68 Thank you for helping a fellow member :)
Yes, you can indeed. You should ask your doctor about it next time you're in a for a check up.
