At night when spasticity is at it's worst do you find as the baclofen is kicking in -
That your toes begin to dorseflex up and down? Thats how i know the spasticity is getting better. On the one hand it is good - things are loosening up, but bad because the toes flex so violently that i swear it is clonus. (Neurologist says its possible) Any experience with this?
 
It happened when I was taking Baclofen as well! My legs would be sore the next day from all the activity.

I do not have the same problems with Tizanidine, however. It has really worked well for me With the exception of the one time I took otc cold and flu medicine a few weeks ago and it interacted with my usual bedtime dose of Tizanidine. Don't believe the doctors when they say it won't interact!
 
This happens to me too! Although I'm not on any medications to help with spasticity. Doctors wont do anything here til I have a proper diagnosis, which none of them seem interested in investigating...
