Muscle Tone - Used in clinical practice to describe the resistance of a muscle to being stretched. When the peripheral nerve to a muscle is severed, the muscle becomes flaccid (limp). When nerve fibers in the brain or spinal cord are damaged, the balance between facilitation and inhibition of muscle tone is disturbed. The tone of some muscles may become increased and they resist being stretched - a condition called hypertonicity or spasticity

Nov. 25th.. more of the same stupid leg pain mess. I am weary, discouraged, and at a loss at being so helpless to stop the pain and its causes. This phase of the tib needs to go away and soon! I am able to read the past couple of weeks so i have taken advantage and have been skimming and devouring books. The leaves in my flower beds bother me. I want do do normal every day things and I I want so much more out of life. I am not good at settling for less than what i had dreamed for. and since life has come up short on my side I am greatly disappointed... heart wrenchingly tearfully so.
