My Physiatrist wanted me to go to massage 2 x week for 6 weeks, first appt was last Monday and on Tuesday morning my lower back hurt more and my neck a little more than usual, the therapist said that happens a lot and should be ok.

2nd appt was Friday and last night I had the most severe pain but now in my R butt, back of thigh and foot/big toe, it was burning so badly, took a pain pill which did nothing so finally at 5am took a Tizanidine and a Meloxicam which knocked me out.

The pain was always in my left leg/foot/big toe never the right leg.

I just don't know what to do, what's going on with the R leg now!!??

Always had pain in neck, L shoulder/arm but now this.

Has anyone experienced this after a massage, is it just a coincidence? who knows, I'm tired of all this pain!

Am seeing a neurosurgeon next month but am so frustrated.
