I was on the max dosage of oral Baclofen before the pump and was not getting relief from the spasms, just felt like a had major brain fog all the time.

It really has helped with knee-jerking spasms.

Although it does relieve some of my spasms and clonus they are not able to turn the dose up high enough to get the desired relief with out affecting my bladder function. I wish before I had it inserted I had checked to see what it was going to cost me each time I get it refilled. Even with insurance coverage we were shocked at the copay amount. I will be having the pump removed when it is time to replace it and go back on the oral Baclofen.
