SPASTICITY

[DMG]

Haven't been to MS World in a long time. I maxed out on Baclofen so neuro put me on Tizanidine.
I still have times when spasticity is relentless, usually in the middle of the night .
Has anyone had any success in getting relief at those times?
Thanks

Hi DMG

Good to see you back here!

Would you like this thread moved to the Spasticity Thread in the Symptoms Sub-Forum?

I'm running short on time, but you sound like a candidate for a baclofen pump. They implant a pump in your body roughly the size of a hockey puck and it delivers medication in the intrathecal part of your spinal column. For me, it was the answer to all of my spasticity and then some. High dose oral medications are terrible, especially baclofen, but the pump uses a minuscule amount and has greater benefits without those nasty side effects.

Here's a link overview:

Here's a starting point at MSWorld, but there are many others:

Can someone recommend a cannabis or hemp strain for real bad leg spasticity?
