Hi,
I had a baclofen pump implanted February 2015. Many months of weekly adjustments and at this point I am using a cane, which I didn't need when I had the pump surgery.
In late August I was starting to get very weak and loopy. My physiatrist determined that we overshot the baclofen and began cutting back at my weekly pt appointments. I am now at a dosage that I had mid summer, before the cane and I still need to use it. I'm still loose.
I had a full MRI done in September and all lesions stayed the same or improved. No new ones. Yay Tecfidera!
But, could an improved lesion lessen the spasticity that I have?
Thanks
Paula
