If your shaking so bad you cant function in life and the pill form doesn't work, this is the next step. The doctor performing the surgery will inform you off all the dangers and risks involved.

Read the label of any drug on your table, they are have a potential to kill you if used improperly.

I can only assume my Baclofen needs to be upped... Right now I'm taking 10@9AM, 10MG@4PM and 10MG@10PM.
