Hi Lynne - my neuro prescribed 60mg/day of of baclofen pills (working up in increments from 10mg), but when I got to 20mg, I became like a rag doll. I couldn't sit up without tilting over, and when I got tired (like at 5pm every day), I could hardly stand up (with walker of course). She said with the pump, that wouldn't happen, because it's a minute dose, directly where I need it. The only bladder issue I have is going too often. If my legs become weak, I will be very disappointed BERNARD BUTCHER

Just wish the results I was getting now were half as good as what I got from the trial. But when my dosage is adjusted high enough to get those results I have increased bladder issues and weakness. Hoping things work out better for you.

Next week I am going in the hospital for a spinal tap trial before I get a Baclofen pump installed. I am wary about the whole thing Barney ________________________________
