Default Ugh...the 'hug' since Wed

I started getting twinges on Wed in my rightside ribcage, under bra strap. By Thursday evening, I was starting to 'grunt' when I got the jabs and they were becoming more constant now. By Friday, had to call Dr after trying stretching, heat, ice pack, icyhot cream, massage, gabapentin. The Dr upped my gabapentin to 400mg, 4x day, and prescribed 20mg baclofen 4x day as well. This seems to have 'mellowed' the spasms a little bit. Sat was pretty bad, so I just hung low, reading & napping and today has turned out to be the same.
I am still fighting the hug, as it continues to remind me it is there....I've never had a hug last this long :-(
The meds seem to be helping, and I've been making sure to keep up on the timing. Hoping it just stops all together.
Just venting to those who 'get it'....:-)
