Guest guest Posted May 5, 2005 Report Share Posted May 5, 2005 Hi all, I really need some sound advice as I am having an increasingly painful problem with this. I am confined to a wheel chair and my legs are becoming frozen in the sitting bent position, My sleep is very uncomfortable since I am stuck in one position all night long and unable to move. My legs are contracting all night long which is extremely painful, last night I got a total of 1 hr of sleep. I don't know if it's because of lack of sleep, but I'm really becoming depressed and feeling like I stand no chance of ever getting out of this damn chair or relieving some of the pain. When I bring this up to the neuro he wants me to get the Baclofen pump (the pills aren't working so why would I want to go this route). I have been taking Valerian, muscle ease, poppy seed with not a whole lot of help. I am also on the dreaded Baclofen and Zanaflex w/no help. Does anyone have any ideas? Has anyone heard of anybody in as bad of condition who has gotten leg movement back and some range of motion? Karin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
