Did any of you start out this whole "experience" with severe spasming in the
legs? I did 2 nights before my legs gave out. Just thought I was working
too hard
at my water aerobics. The baclofen has always been a blessing for me after
I figured out the dosage and what time to take it.

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.

I have been very pleased with the amount of baclofen I take in pill
form. It really has helped with knee-jerking spasms.

I have had a Baclofen pump for a 3 years now. 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.
