question: I have been seeing neurologist for several years. Had nerve in legs, peripheral neuropothy, treated with gauminex infusions. Muscles in legs, thighs and calves have spasims even at rest and this year have been diagnozed with stiff person syndrome. Just within last month started baclofen 10M tablets split take l/2 pill 4 times daily to test. Has helped especially with sleep, muscles were going out aany time I turned. I noticed after a month that my osteoarthritis seems to be getting active (have it in my spine) since taking bacloffen. It seems the pill helps the muscles but now my lower back/hips and sometime side of r leg gets very achy. Is this the consequence of the baclofen. Dr. wants me to increase these pills to a whole pill 2/day. Fear how bad my osteo arthritius us going to flare up. What is common ground here.
