HI littleQuad,
I have the baclofen pump for 5yrs. and it has
changed my life. Before I got it I had spasms so bad that they caused AD. I very
rarely have spasms now. It also helped the pain I had. I wish you good luck and
I hope you have as good results as I did.

wow, so sorry to hear the pain and trouble!! i go for the trial next
thursday, hoping have better results! do you no longer have it period? what
are you doing for spasms?
I have heard that the pump has helped a lot of people but me personally
i had a bunch of problems with it. the skin over the pump was very
painful to the touch. my spasms kept getting worse the more they
raised the dosage. the doctor found bacteria in the baclofen fluid so
i told them to remove the pump. after the surgery to remove
my pump i went home for about an hour when my mom noticed a puddle of
clear liquid on the ground under my chair. IT WAS SPINAL FLUID.
so i went to the emergency room had my back double stichted and glued then i
went home again. more fluid leaked out and i ended up staying in the
hospital for 3 days on my back. all of this went on in a 1 1/2 yr.
period. oh yea not to mention the other 5 surgeries i had to test the
pump to find out why it wasn't working.
