I have had a baclofen pump since the summer of 2001. Works. Never a
problem. Never an infection.
Usual 80/20%

I want to get some feedback on the implantable pump (intrathecal)
that provides meds directly into the spine.
Any problems with infection?
Cost on Medicare - 80/20 or 100% ?
Convenient to have, or a pain with upkeep, maintenance, whatever
problems you may have had?
Did it work (regardless of the med, but it would be nice to know)?
I am looking at pain relief, and probably anti-spasmodic being
delivered via this device. Thanks for your input. mt
