A randomized clinical trial to compare selective posterior rhizotomy plus physiotherapy with physiotherapy alone in children with spastic diplegic cerebral palsy.
Interestingly, these neurons become so starved for stimulation, they become hypersensitive and start firing inappropriately, causing increased muscle tone and muscle spasms, so we call this spastic paralysis.
It didn't matter to me if I'd spent the morning really struggling with my medication, or at lunch my legs being very spastic, or even if I had fallen out of my wheelchair.
