Hi Deb...

As you know... we are all different... crazy RSD....

I take 40mg of Baclofen each day... 10mg in morning and noon, 20mg at night. As for me... it doesn't stop the spasms, cramping, tremors or jerks. But it does calm them down to a more tolerable level.

I hope it brings you relief that we are all seeking.


Abbie

Hey everyone!
I take 20 mgs early morning & early afternoon & at bedtime I take 10 mgs of Baclofen. It helps with the cramping in my toes most of the time. Unless it is really severe, then some cramping sneaks through. I also think it helps with the jerking in my hands altho it does NOT stop all of the jerking. But atleast now I can hold a cup of coffee most mornings as long as I really concentrate while doing it if I am in a really bad jerking mode. It doesn't happen severely all the time. But I do hate when it happens. This morning is bad. Got up for the stay at 9am & it is 11am now & am having problems with typing *LOL* Good thing the keys on this key board are not sensitive. If I was on my lap top I would be having to back space/delete alot of extra key strokes out. The key board on the lappy are really sensitive. Having to do alot of deleting as it is. When I am jerking while typing I tend to hit keys I don't intend to hit. Anyone who jerks hard enough when typing knows exactly what I am talking about I would think(?)!!!

I don't want to up it tho, the Baclofen that is. I am sleepy enough as it is with all that I take.
