Default what's best for muscles spasms (post op ACDF)

Hi all.... I have a follow up with my family doctor on Monday for prescription refills, my biggest issue I have right now is these darn muscle spasm from the neck collar. They are brutal.

Currently I have been taking Norflex (100 mg) as a muscle relaxer to ease the spasms, I was wondering if anyone can offer any other suggestions that may work better. How about anything that works without making you so drowsy (or is that a given since it's a muscle relaxer).

I want to go into my appt. with an idea of what to ask for, my family doctor is usually pretty accomodating when I ask to try new things to get relief. What's worked for others?

Thank you, Cathie
