My baclofen pump dosage level has not yet accomplished its raison d'etre.

The violent leg jerks are gone, but I still have excess tone in the affected
lower leg.

I have had 36 or more increases in the dosage level; I've gone from 50
ug/day to 1125. And my toes still twitch and crawl [but that is of no
consequence.] I could control the jerks with tizanidine (Zanaflex.)

So I see my neurologist every four months or so. [The doctor that refills
the pump will comply with any reasonable suggested increase, and I'm
conservative.]
