Thanks, Barb. I've taken Baclofen off and on since I've been dx and it hasn't bothered me when I stop taking it. I stopped Neurontin cold turkey, too, after being on a 900 mg daily dose and had no problems with that either. Guess I'm just one of those people who don't get the withdrawl side effects.
