Everyday life with spasticity https://www.carenity.co.uk/forum/spasticity/living-with-spasticity/everyday-life-with-spasticity-1920If you are familiar with this symptom, you are welcome to share your experience about it 
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!
@Pleasance
Hiya I have heard that they dont last long. Can u get these on NHS.
Can you get botox injections on NHS
Delia
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.
thank you. I did inquire, however apparently, my illness isnt enough to have those.
Thank you
Delia
