Hi - I don't use such medication but will require something for my leg spasms in the future. Been told they will exacerbate my mobility and sedate! Want to avoid this as long as possible. Are you seeking similar relief?

anybody heard of epsom salts? apparently a great muscle relaxant and releases toxins from body, i may give them a try, they go in your bath and you do it 3 times a week xx

I do not use them myself but my wife has Baclofen for hers as she has MS but the other night it was doing nothing and she looked like a puppet on a string!

I want to genuinely wish you all the best of luck if you are trying to decide which to go for.

All my hopes and dreams for you

Thanks Ken, I was on zanaflex but didn't do much except make me sleep so Dr has given my back often to try for 10 days. So frustrating Drs won't give diazepam anymore, that was great for the worst spasms. Surely there is something similar we can take?
