I agree with this guy. I can also relate to the pain. My doctor explained to
me that there is no cure for nerve pain. That bacloflen and nerontin,
stimulate a different pat of your brain to kind cover up the pain. But have
side effects, fatigue, cognitive and memory laps or loss.
For me, I am in pain from the moment I wake up until I fall asleep. I have
to take Ambien to fall asleep, or like you I am up for days. What have for
me that helps is water and exercise. A bath and a Chiropractic adjustment.
Honestly, I need to work on the excersise part.
Hope this helps I know how hard it is to focus when your tired and in pain,
I will keep you in my prayers.

One thing you need to do is before you even upped your baclofen was to find
out why your getting the sweats n spasms, usually alot of times taking more
medicine hides whats really wrong.(the sweats n spasms or A.D. is usually
our body telling us something is wrong) I took myself off (slowly) but 60mg
of baclofen from 160mg the only reason I needed so much at the time was
cause I broke my leg. One thing about baclofen is it lowers your blood
pressure and you need to remember also its hard on the digestive system and
liver. It will make you very sleepy because its a type of relaxer. You need
to talk w/ your doctor and see if there's something wrong w/ your back you
might have done something to it and not realized it or maybe the way your
laying in bed or could be your bed, but just taking more medicine is not
always a good idea, your just masking the problem. Maybe try something else
becoz thats alot of baclofen and sounds like causing more problems.

Hopefully you don't mean 320 mg of Baclofen a day. 10mg twice a day was
about all I could take without falling asleep every time I sat still.. My
waking spasms have now settled down after 42 years of this crap.
Sleeping/lying spasms still bother me but the med-head bothers me too much
to kill them with drugs. Just experiment to find the right balance for you.
No Dr. can guess right the 1st time. You are the feed-back mechanism.

Hello everyone,
I wrote a few weeks back was telling everyone how i was having bad back
pain,bad spasms, and drinching in sweat. The spams were so bad they were
jerking me from sleep. Well i upgraded my pump on the 15th. For two days
after that I was asleep. I could not pull myself from my sleep. I was really
scared. Finally on 3rd day there was no more spams, no more sweating, and I
was a wake. Since then my stomach was hurting. Well the pain went away last
night after a week. But I am soooooo sleepy. What do you guys think? I was
getting 280 dosage thru pump now i have 320. I'm so faustrated because if i
go bk & lower pump i'm scared toget spams & sweats back. But i can't
continue to be so sleepy.. I wk a 40 job and i just want to be put my head
down. Should i downgrade too 300.? I'm asking u guys cause we know more than
the dr's lol
