The left leg is bad and the right foot is not too bad. What should he be taking for the pain? He sees his specialist in 3 weeks and con not wait.. Rose anne
Spasticity is very common in multiple sclerosis............you are having progressive disease....his pain is both because of spasticity and neuropathic pain so u have following option1....start muscle relaxant like tizanidine, baclofen2.....start cannabis......spray or as available3.....increase the dose of carbamazepine but not the Gabapentin because then you will have dizziness4.....add tricyclic antidepressant medicine for pa intake care
