Unhappy SEVERE lumbar spasm ... should I go to ER?



I am having a MAJOR lower back spasm. I had a discectomy L5S1 back in 2004 and have a couple more recent budging discs at L3 & L4. I also Have RSD/CRPS II.

This spasm is so bad I can barely walk to the bathroom. I am crying in pain, and have taken all the drugs I have in my arsenal (eg, Soma, Tramadol, Gabapentin, Percocet 5/325.

If I go to the ER, outside of dilaudid, does anyone know if the can do some sort of injection to relax this spasm in my lower back? I'm not even sure if I could make it to my car, or even handle any sort of ride, but if I knew this might be possible, I might give it a try.

I just don't know what to do, and I am in CRAZY amounts of pain, which only triggers more pain with my RSD/CRPS. Dear God let it stop hurting so bad.
