Frown Back spasms

I know we all get them, so thought I would start a post on them so we can share information as to how we deal.

Mine seem to come out of the blue .. I don't particularly have to do anything, but I guess because I favour my right hand side, it's causing particular stress on the right side of my body.

Mike took me supermarket shopping this last week when he was off. I normally just let him do it as he does most of the big meals. He wandered off and I was up and down the aisles looking for him when I felt my right hip starting to go into a massive spasm. It got so that I couldn't even put one step in front of the other and some nice people asked if i was ok. (though the tears streaming down my face told them that there was something wrong I guess .. Lol)

Ended up being wheeled out in a wheelchair. Oh lord, that chair was a blessing I can tell you .. Once I'd got into it that is.

How do you guys manage your spasms? I felt I'd been kicked by a horse for hours after and any movement started my side flaring up again, so I just ended up in bed with some diazepam and a good book.

I look back and I'm so embarrassed .. I don't want to go back to the store again. Lol
