Baclofen Pump

[pjb229]

Hi everyone, it's been a long time since I have posted, but I was wondering if anyone has a baclofen pump. I have been living with bad spasms for years & my neurologist suggested a pump. I was interested to see if anyone has been on a pump & how well it has worked? Any info would be appreciated.

I’ve had mine since 2004, love it. Reason I am still able to live alone and walk.

pjb229 I do not have a pump but I know that there are some people on the group that do. I'm sorry that your pain is so bad that you need one. Please keep us updated on what you decide.

Sorry I never heard of a baclofen pump I do take baclofen tablets. Would it be like an insulin pump?

[pjb229 in reply to kycmary]

It's similar to an insulin pump but it is surgically implanted in the stomach area & then refilled through a port from what I have researched.

Well? I am thinking about it too. Did you get one?!🤗

Thank you for the info as I only take 3-5 per day I won't think about it.
