Kelly - I can't tolerate even 10 mg so I don't take anything. I move around a lot when the spasticity gets bad as I just can't stay still. I also take my Epsom salt bath and that helps quite a bit. For me, I think the Neurontin helps with some of the pain and spasticity. I can't imagine what I would be like without it. Quite honestly, I don't want to find out.

When I was at the neuros last week, we talked about the baclofen and how it made me feel at the 10 mg. She did say that 10 mg was the starting dose on the baclofen and you work your way up from there. However, since it wasn't working for me, we didn't discuss how high up I could go. Wait, 10 mg made me high enough. LOL So, rephrase, we didn't discuss the maximum dose.

If it is not working for you, call the prescribing dr and see if they can switch you to something else.
