Thanks for the info...I am on baclofen, and the NP just increased the doseage, as well as increased the gabapentin for pain. But the IVSM monthly takes the sxs down to miraculous levels.
I just got back from PT...I first went last Tuesday. He couldn't believe how bad I'd gotten. I could hardly walk, and I was dragging my rt. foot and could not straighten my legs to walk straight. I'd already increased the baclofen to 60 mg/day.
Last Thur. I had the IVSM. I walked in to PT today, and he couldn't believe the difference.
So after about 2-21/2 wks, I'll stiffen up again and the pain will increase. And I'm scheduled for an IVSM after 4 wks. I go to Hawaii the next day, and see a different neuro when I get back, so I'll see what he thinks about all of these meds/ IVs. Until then I just want to be able to walk and sleep and not go to the bathroom in my pants. Just until then...
