Does anyone else struggle w/ night time spasticity

[aishah]

i wake up from big muscle spasms in my calves sometimes. ngl it’s so rough and kinda makes me panic about foot drop for the morning. i try to track when it happens, but nothing seems obvious as a trigger. does anyone find that nighttime spasticity is just… fundamentally worse than daytime? what helps you sleep through those kinds of flares

anyway.

Sometimes “worse at night” is just pharmacokinetics. Any med you take during the day for it is hitting its lowest trough concentration in the early morning hours, right when the effect wears off.
