Default Ativan for spasticity

I'm pretty desperate to find a medication even to help a little bit with my spasticity. Baclofen totally doesn't do anything for it, I take one before bed and one when I get up but I am thinking of stopping (gradually!) altogether because my spasticity has only gotten worse since I started it.

On the national MS website they listed some other drugs for treatment of spasticity and Ativan is on there. I've only ever taken Ativan before MRIs and I'm ok with it. I'm wondering if it is something I should try. My sleep at night is HORRID thanks to spasticity and the pain associated with it.

Would love to hear from anyone who's on it, has been on it, or just has any info for me about using it for this purpose.

ETA- I realize I'm on a v low does of Baclofen but I used to be on a higher dose, and have slowly been coming down from that.
