I spoke to my PMD at my last appointment and asked if there was something else we could try as I am still having horrible tightness. He did bump up the flexeril to 20 mg which is helping, but of course making me sleepy ( which is fine since I don't sleep well)

He said there wasn't anything stronger he could/would want to add because of the interaction with my other medication.

Mrs D I find the info about magnesium interesting. I remember reading info on it years back when I was researching my migraines. I take 250 mg-500mg oral daily.
Please make sure it is not Oxide form...that does NOT work.
