    Muscle twitches (or fasciculations) are a common symptom in other neurodegenerative diseases, particularly amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. It seems that many people living with MS also experience the same twitches from time to time in various parts of the body.

    Spasticity…cramps…twitches. Whatever you want to call them I’ve had them for much of the 40+ years I’ve lived with MS, particularly in bed at night. Stretching, baclofen and Gabapentin have helped.
