Does any have advice to help with having my arms and legs feel as though they are twice as heavy as usual? Start with feeling like my muscles where miss firing Last week to extra heavy arms and legs.
Christy, I know how you feel I deal with muscle weakness and the heaviness too. I can't go to the gym like the doctor wants me to help with making the muscle stronger because I can't afford to go. But I do have access to a pool where I go and this is easier on the body anyway and doesn't wear me out as bad, but still get a good work out. I hope this helps a little I will be praying for you I know this works better than anything. God bless...
One way I've tried to deal with heavy limbs as to try to stretch . After my toileting, I do a short warm up routine (takes about 5 minutes) and is no more than a reminder to my muscles to be ready to work with me. Muscle relaxers work, just not for me but they can be important. I do take a low dose of them 2x a day but the daily stretching helped me tons. Good luck!!
@A MyMSTeam Member, I go by LaZy, I was Dx'd back in 2005, since I've been through a few Steroid Infusions to help clear up a left eye Blurred issue (it worked). Now I am dealing with my left leg Not cooperating Correctly. New Neurologist I will meet next month, hopefully This one will Help me out. I hope that you've found a Neurologist closely to help You with your issues. I kno & understand how alone you may be feeling, but as far as anything at home use, without a Dr's Rx, I'm sorry I don't have any helpful recommendations, I do apologize, I Will Hope Pray & Keep You in my Prayers Christyππππβ€β€β€π€π€π€π€πΈββ€β€β€

I recently figured out that baclofen contributes to a lot of weakness in my arms. Also if I have a cold or uti going on I have less function. Stress is a paralitic. I cannot move if there is a lot of stress in my life.
Thank you so much. Your words are bery incourging I am very lucky to have a awsome neroligist. Im actually going to send him a message this moring.
