Guest guest Posted May 28, 2011 Report Share Posted May 28, 2011 Thanks Debbie for sharing your experiences with Baclofen. It is a miracle drug for most of those who use it. When I needed it I was sure glad to have it!How are you doing? It's always good to hear from you!hugs SharonThis email is a natural hand made product.

But when that time comes and I need some extra help I will take a Valium and it does the job. There is also the baclofen pump which my neuro keeps reminding me of. I could not walk without it, legs are still and the spasms are killers. Hugs to all of you, Debbie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted June 12, 2011 Report Share Posted June 12, 2011 Catching up a bit here. How long can you keep Baclofen? Again it may be my strange body, but after taking one, I have to be very careful standing up. My limbs feel like 'mush' and I'm most likely to land on my butt. I'd rather take a little dose of valium, usually 2.5 mg. Speaking of legs, I was feeling kind of happy about my right side stopping to spasm despite the increasing cramps and pains. Lately my left leg is spasming and I do know my balance is getting worse. What's the next thing to do about a cane? Has anyone used two canes or crutches? ... hugs, Cait Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 12, 2011 Report Share Posted June 12, 2011 I met a MSer once who was started on a low dose of Baclofen. The next day she couldn't stand up. Her doc was positive it wasn't the baclofen because it was such a low dose. After 5 months of this she finally went to the Mayo Clinic in MN. They took her off the baclofen and she could stand again. Bodies are different. Perhaps valium would be better for you if it works. big hugs SharonThis email is a natural hand made product.

Guest guest Posted June 12, 2011 Report Share Posted June 12, 2011 I really do react like that ... my body feels like I'm a ragdoll altho it doesn't make me tired or anything. I think it's just my darn body reacts so unusually (can't think of a better word). That's why I'm never taking another Effexor but I sure hope I can get back on prozac. A single low dose of old Inderal after giving birth back in 1979 had my body covered in a rash and I felt loopier than a fruitcake!. With that being said, maybe I am a loopy fruitcake but I don't feel like it ... hugs, Cait Re: Baclofen Catching up a bit here. How long can you keep Baclofen?
