I know I have spasticty in my legs… neuro has told me that much…

But lately my fingers are feeling very strange, like I am trying to move them through treacle… especially if I am typing a lot… they seem to be getting their own version of fatgiue!!

On a couple of occasions, an odd finger has got stuck, couldn’t move it at all! But only lasted no more than a minute.

Has this happend to anyone else?

Hi Jules, My fingers tire really easily and they can feel a bit stiff, my left thumb can really hurt. I took a mock exam a few months ago and I was in tears by the end as my thumb was so painful whilst trying to write. I had to pace myself for the actual exam. I am trying to knit to try and do something constructive to take my mind off my feet and forthcoming Neuro appt and my fingers aren’t happy at all!! Sam x

Hi Jules, yes it happens to me. I get spastity in my arms and hands and when I try to do things they lock up. Its a shame really cus I cant play classical guitar now, or type, or write… Maybe can get some meds when I’m dx. 😢 Frank.

Hi Jules

Yes, my hands seem to have a mind of their own sometimes.

The baclofen does take the edge off it, but not completely.

Thank you…

Isn’t it strange when you hear other peolple having ailments and being happy about it… not in a nasty way of course… just because it’s nice to know other people know how you’re feeling and you’re not alone!!

Thank you!!! 🙂
