Calling all spasticity sufferers!

I am interested in anyone and everyone who has been diagnosed with spasticity.

These are involuntary stiffening spasms in legs and other parts of the body.

What are your symptoms?
Where do you get them?
Did they stop after surgery?
Or at least stop getting worse?

How was it diagnosed?
Were you told what causes them?
Have you been told / do you know, what level is causing them?
Have you been told that you will always have them?

I am trying to find out what is causing mine and am interested in others experiences and stories.

Looking forward to your replies. Day Dreaming
