Hi fellow lupuies! I was diagnosed 6months ago after experiencing severe joint pains. I am cirrentlu on plaquinil and naproxen but lately I have been having muscle spasms all over my body. Does anyone else have spasms?

Dont understantand muscle spasms all over my body. . that means you cannot move parts of your limbs. at certain times. its that right? I say this becacuse I get spasms, One thing I was told by my Neuro was to avoid hot baths as they drain all the energy out of you and lets face it we are not over flowing with it. If you are having spasms you need to see a Neuro, see your Doctor and ask to be refered. As they are painful and could be caused by something else. Good luck

I have muscle jerks as i call them. I am on amitriptalyne which helps to calm them down - also helps me sleep at night and prevents regular migraines.
