Sorry Jim is not feeling well. Those spasms can be torturous.

Has Jim ever considered giving LDN a try? It helps with the sx.....but I think he takes some narcotic meds (?) so that may prevent him from trying it. Some people get tremendous relief from their sx and some only get minimal help. It's just an individual thing.

I took Beta for a while but had such bad reactions to it that I stopped. My MRI's were not stable, either, so I knew it wasn't working for me.

Maybe he's built up a resistance to Baclofen. He's been on that med a while, hasn't he? Maybe time for something stronger. I have taken Baclofen but it makes me so loopy that I stopped. Aleve does about as much good as Baclofen did for me without the side effects.

You're so good to him, Sandy. All people who need assistance should be so fortunate.
