I could really use a drug. |
|
I have a backache that won't quit. Had it for days now. Vicodin and naproxen won't touch it.

1. Ouch...I'm really sorry. I've been there with my neck. |
|
Flexeril is helping, finally, but Medi-Cal won't cover it, so I'm having it sent to me from an online drug store. It will probably cost me about $20 for 90 10 mg tabs, but hell, it's better than being in pain.

15. accupuncture worked well for me |
|
along with very large ibuprofen from the doc.
Now I do tai chi regularly and rarely get that type of back pain anymore. Hope you feel better!

4. Thought about a chiropractor? |
|
I know a lotta people don't like 'em, but they've helped me quite a bit. And you can usually get in to see one the same day if you're in real pain.
Just sayin'.

you have to get a prescription for it, though, but it does the trick for me.

Ask WCGreen for a testimonial.
BTW - I'm very sorry that your back is hurting.

That's the best, IMHO. But you need to be a couch potato while taking it, as it's a muscle relaxant.
Ice, gentle stretching and walking help me when I have lower back pain. Good luck.

19. It's prescription only. |
|
But since you got Vicodin, maybe you can go back and ask for this. Good luck. :)
