Baclofen pump and breathing issues

Hi guys,

I have had my Baclofen pump now for a year now and my Baclofen is up to 595. The tone in my right leg is still a 2 plus ( lots of tone). My Dr ups the Baclofen rate 10%higher every 3 wks but still I have not reached that "ideal" zone.

I have noticed that I am having trouble breathing. I am always out of breath just sitting around doing nothing, I find myself gasping for air. Is this due to my high level of Baclofen? Thanks so much for any help.

Evonne
