I'm on four baclofen a day and it may be helping but I still spasm non stop. Valium doesnt help either. By spasm I mean my legs and feet kick, twist, look like they're trying to swim all day long. It gets violent enough at times that i have to be held in place so I dont fall offthe couch or tip my chair, etc. They only seem to stop while sleeping so luckily ambiem knocks me out. The lightest touch makes it a million times worse. I'm now in a wheelchair. Had the nerve block but it was considered a failure since motor symptoms actually got worse afterward. Fortunately all my other pain has subsided and the CRPS swelling and discoloration looks a lot better. Doctors are stumped. I see at least one a day and they are really trying to help so i know im extremely lucky in that regard too. I'm on Okinawa and will be finding out soon if we'll be transferred off the island back to the states.
