I take baclofen in the AM, afternoon, and bedtime...if I wake up with
spasms, I take another.
NAOT has a pair of Mary Janes, with a velcroe buckle.
My orthodics work because the sole comes out of the shoe.
They are the only ones I have found, so far. You have to buy
expensive shoes, where the sole comes out.
Also, you need one size larger if using orthodics. (plus, I have a
brace that fits in my shoe and extends up to my knee for balance.)\
I can now walk balanced.

Susan,
I guess I don’t want the drowsiness it causes. What times of the
day do you take your baclofen?
I don’t have trouble with tennis shoes, just my dressier shoes.
Of course, I don’t wear heals, but all of a sudden I am having
spasming with my flats.
We don’t have a Foot Solutions. Does they have shoes besides
tennis shoes?

why don't you want to take more baclofen during the day? Does it
make you drowsy?
I take it 3 times a day.
Also, I have orthodics (sp?) that I put in all my shoes.
otherwise, I have lots of problems. I only wear good, supportive
shoes.
Even spent big bucks at Foot Solutions, but what a difference.
Wishing you all the very best for 2012.

Gerry,
In the last 6 months or so, I have noticed that feeling (or
spasming) on the bottoms of my feet. It makes it difficult to
walk. Also, certain shoes make the spasming a
problem too. I am assuming that if I take more baclofen during
the day that it will improve. Just don’t want to. Is this
what you are talking about?
