Hereditary Spastic Paraparesis

Question:
I have what doctors think to be Hereditary Spastic Paraparesis. They are reluctant due to no family history of the disease. It possibly is sporadic. I have moderate to severe spascticity according to my neurologist. I battle fatigue on a daily basis with no improvement after numerous medications to counteract it. When does fatigue become a concern and does it compromise other body function besides the neuromuscular system? Also do you have any suggestions on treatment of fatigue?
Thank you for taking our questions!
