When you start taking baclofen, in order to avoid the side effects, you should use a very slow method of titration. If you've been prescribed it by a doctor, she should give you a titration schedule starting off at just 5 or 10 mg per day. If you can't find a doctor to prescribe and you're going it alone, then pop onto the MWO Meds Forum and someone there should help you out. If you titrate slowly, it will take longer to reach indifference, perhaps 1 to 3 months, but you won't become a vegetable as I (temporarily) did, because I titrated up crazy fast.
By the way, 'titrate' is a medical term, which means to gradually increase the dosage until optimal results are achieved. It has nothing to do with evaluating breasts and assigning a score, which would be a dreadful thing to do and I certainly never would. Well, I wouldn't do it now, not openly, unlike when I was at school. I would stand in the corridor and give marks out of 10 as the other students passed by “0”,”0”, “0”, “0”...well, it was Infants School. I had to wait a few years before anything really registered on the boobometer: “0”, “1”, “0”, “8”. The '8', unfortunately, belonged to a fat boy named Mark D***s (I've redacted the name to spare Mark Davis' blushes).
Mark was a proper porker, with a mighty fine pair of boobs. We used to play in the same rugby team. He was a very handy prop forward who loved to get stuck into tackles and would ruck and maul with the best of them. He once told me, that sometimes when he was at the bottom of a ruck, the opposing players would feel him up, such was the allure of his mammoth rack.
That rather put me off boobs for a while and I became much more of a bum man. I don't mean I became a homosexual, I just mean I shifted my attention from boobs to butts. OK, that sounds gay too, but that's not it at all. I don't want you to think I'm gay OK? I'm not. There's nothing wrong with being a gay, alright? I'm just not one. I don't know why I feel the need to explain this to you?
Anyhoo, it didn't put me off rugby, which isn't even slightly gay, despite what happened to Mark. So what if a few people regard the game as homoerotic? I can assure you there is nothing even slightly erotic about having several 300 pound neanderthals jumping on you and squashing your wedding tackle...unless you're gay, which I'm NOT!!!
OK, I'm not getting anywhere here. If you want to know how to titrate correctly on baclofen, then either follow the link above or send me an email and I'll answer it after I've listened to my Judy Garland records in my bubble bath.

Hey Murph
ReplyDeleteNice to "see" you "bac"

The man doth protest too much, methinks.
ReplyDeleteI need to stop drinking. Is this for reel? How do I get the medicine.?
ReplyDeleteYes Jenny it's for real. I haven't been an alcoholic for 2 years now (less a month or so). There are many of us now. It is an old, cheap generic medicine so nobody is making any money off of it. How you get it depends on where in the world you are. Obviously a doctor is the best way, but not that many doctors know about it yet. There are other ways to get it if you can't get it through a doctor. Go to the My Way Out meds forum and get familiar with the people there. They'll help you out. http://www.mywayout.org/community/f20/
ReplyDeleteHi Jenny, as LooP says, visit the My Way Out forum and ask for help. If you'd rather, you can email me I.hardun@gmail.com
ReplyDeleteIt's for real, Jenny.
