Do you find your spasticity gets worse when stressed?

I experience a positive feedback loop of stress, spasticity, more stress about being spastic in front of others, more spasticity, rinse and repeat. It makes certain things like job interviews (stand up at a whiteboard and solve coding problems in front of a panel of devs) especially hard.

I've heard that when one gets a heart transplant, that the nerves controlling your heart rate aren't connected anymore, and your heartrate just sort of ...beats at a fast steady rate whether you're running or being a couch potato. Is this true?
