is it possible to weaken one group of muscles so that weak/lazy or even with no brain signal (how do you tell, by the way) can grow stronger. If this is possible, will it do anything for muscle spasms?

How does benoflaxine know where to go? Isn't botox just a temp. measure? Questions, questions.
Good Morning Scruffycat!
I had to google benoflaxine, and ventlaflaxine came up! I did it a couple of times
because I have to double check these days, so I'm confused. Ventlaflaxine is
an antidepressant, so obviously has no connection since you mention botox.
Is benoflaxine botox?

I know this is a simple answer, but I do stretches each day, as this helps my muscle spasms more that anything else.
i was diagnosed in 05 but got little help from the hospital probably because they didnt know much about c/a,i am now having bad muscle spasms bad sleep i havent seen a a nuero doctor for n3yrs now and im at my wits end
