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.
