I havesuch spasicity in my legs that it makes walking a chore. Going down the stairs is a 10 minute ordeal.

Tried Bacelon it made me very foggy and did not touch the problem.

Any suggestions on what else to try?
My LLMD is not a fan of those medicines and feels it will get better with the IV rocephin that I start Thurs.

I have been doing IV VitC and herx so bad after, the spasicity gets worse.

Any suggestions?

in my opinion you have to kill more of the bacteria. Thats the only thing that helped my muscle twitches. Not potassium, not magnesium, etc. or etc.

Just find a way to start killing spirochetes and they'll decrease.

Have you tried Baclofen? I know it does help people with MS who have rigidity/spasticity.
