Yes it should I have that and it is difficult to do things that I use to be able to do. I feel weak all the time and like i have 40 pound weights on my wrists and ankles making it difficult to move. Its awful.

Do you take any muscle relaxant meds at all - I have to take baclofen to counteract that feeling. It's all down to the muscle spasticity & hyperreflexia that we have as a result of spinal cord injury - similar in symptoms to folk living with Multiple Sclerosis etc. It is exhausting, so can empathise.
