Default spasms/ spasticity question on the pain??

HELP!!!

ok had this stiffeness in back for many years, and in ankles when waking. Eventually I after few years of getting up like age 99 and finally feeling my age after being up and about each day... but eventually in so pain waking to move in tears... finally let a neuro know..

he mentioned idea of it being spasticity, and put me on baclofen. (I am undx as many know here, although this neuro mentions the elephant in the room as we talked about my sxs and clear MRIs)

so once started months ago, it was wonderful, mornings I would wake and get up like I was 20 wow WOW!!! yeahhhh

but eventually some days would get worse, and if doing too much I notice it worse...

sorry long story, was upped the baclofen amounts once... hoping not to up it again..

so anyhow, I work full time on feet, and love to golf, if I do both in a day... or golf a lot...or any... I am back to pain.. but worse then ever, now it is dire pain like description of charlie horses in back.. and if stretch out, then it worsens up a dfifferent part of back

another description... I FEEL LIKE I AM IN LABOR FOR A BABY, BUT NOT IN THE ABS BUT THE BACK!!!!! helpppp

so my reg dr, gave me tramadol to take for this pain, helps some but I am not wanting to take it often but may need to... last few days took it at night when stuff stiffening was awful... but last two days I am in pain at work even...labor pain.. at its full course.. trust me that bad!!

so any suggestions?? do I try the tramadol three times a day as it says I can, any tips on this medicine?? do I call and up the muscle relaxant... help...

hugsss all, sarah (just in so much pain)
