(((((((Herekitty))))))...I have muscle spasms in my upper back that have gotten increasingly worse over the last few months..I can't handle the pain meds, they make me so loopy I'm not aware of my surroundings, and that's no way to live..I've been in physical therapy, and it works great for the 1/2 hr I'm there..But by the time I'm home again, things are back to where they were..I've been keeping up the exercises they taught me and have a heating, vibrating pad for the car (woohoo!)..But I know these are just temporary fixes..I feel for you, and hope we all find a way to get rid of this pain!
