thanks all,

My B12 has been checked many times over the years! But next checkup this fall I will ask for those to make sure they have done all of those in past.. thanks

Well back is feeling better, so I have not taken the tramadol in last few days,
I was dealing with my other issues with whatever I have... vertigo

Monday morning at work, hit like bad and fast.. balance off, dizzy, started vomitting even... got a few calls out to cover me...left work realizing I could not drive in this condition... all my eyes wanted to do was close.. I fell asleep in the van in parking lot. My assistant manager happened to be shopping there and seen my in my van, stopped and asked if I am ok.. and if she should call my hubby. I said no, I will call him soon. fell back asleep. Needless to say she called him a bit later and asked if I made it home.. he rushed over... to find me sleeping in the van..out of it badly.. he drove me home.

I slept then from 11am after sleeping in van 930am-11am... went home slept 11am-5pm straight...

I do not know this crap is a bothersome stuff...feeling much better since, my boss had covered me for Tuesday since I was sleeping when he tried me at 3pm... so he covered Tuesday, I took it easy all day... so back is better ...lol

thighs and hips are in pain lol...

anyhow I am like many of you , do not like to do the drugs so much...especially since in my baclofen and neurontin as it is.. hugss and thanks all, sarah

Another big hug for you (((((((((Sarah))))))))))

I've had back pain and leg weakness that required therapy. I have a big problem with spasticity and it can be ANYWHERE....!!!! Baclofen helps and I try not to take it all the time so my body doesn't get used to it and make me use more and more.
Requip is wonderful.....again only taken if I think I REALLY need it. It helps you fall asleep too which can be difficult if you hurt. The two drugs can really zap the spasticity when it gets on a roll. Sometimes I think things are acting up more and more and then I take both drugs (baclofen during the day and Requip before bed) and wow....stiffness resolved sometimes for days!! I don't know, but I imagine the drugs loosening the knots and laying them out smooth.......relief.
Sometimes a good margarita will act nearly as well.....or at least I don't notice as much

sounds like a scary day!

I too get spastic stuff, and it can be anywhere from my rib cage to my legs. I hate hate hate taking pills, shots, or creams. I just want my body back. I dont want to cover the symptoms, I want them to GO AWAY! I am glad your husband got to you, and took you home. he sounds like a sweetie.

get some rest.

Hi Sarah,
I hope you're feeling better today and you find something that helps.

Karilann - people think I'm kidding when I say margaritas. I'm NOT lol.
