Hey Craig ~ You poor thing~

Muscle spasms SUCK! LOL Those can hurt something awful - I don't have to tell you that tho. Gosh, I've had them wake me up out of a sound sleep -- what little sleep I get, that is. LOL I hope your doc gives you something for the spasms if you have them all the time. I don't like taking meds, but if I HAVE to I will!
And that "standard" low back ache can really wear on you after awhile. At first it seems like you can stand it -- but after it goes on for years, you want to pull your hair out!

Maybe that's why mine is getting thin???
I sure hope your pain is under control - or that the therapist GETS it under control. Keep us posted on your progress, ok? Take care. Hugs, Lee
