For One Thing, It Interferes With Neurological Exams

We are seriously considering adding a "don't be falling-down drunk" line to our Welcome To The Doctor's Office letter. There seems to be some confusion on that point.

LOL. That happened to me. And when I switched to Baclofen a year later it happened again. With the same nurse.

Well, there's being wobbly on meds, and then there's being blind stinking drunk. And I suspect you weren't on Baclofen for alcoholism, so it makes a bit more sense.

Nope, cerebral palsy spasticity. Which I did not know I could be on for until, oh, last year.

(What I mean is... nobody ever told my parents anything about any drugs that could ease spasticity. Until I went to a pain specialist at age 34 and shocked her by saying I had never heard of baclofen.)
