Default Baclofen Withdrawal?

Has anyone had any experience with getting off of baclofen? I was talking 60 mg per day and have been tapering off of it by 10 mg every four days. Now I am wondering if that is too fast. I am now down to 40 mg and should reduce my dosage to 30 starting tomorrow. I am doing this according to my neuro's directions. First he told me to reduce it by 10mg every five days, and then he said I could do it every four days when I complained that it would take a month before I could try something else for my spasticity.

My spasticity is a bit worse, but I am also feeling off. I am wondering if I should slow down the taper a bit. I have plenty of pills. On the other hand, he will not allow me to try zanafex until I am completely off the baclofen.
