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. Regina

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.

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
