Muscle spasm

Love those kinked up mornings, not.
It happens sometimes.

it's times like this that I dig out The Trigger Point Therapy Workbook and see exactly where to massage. This has worked quite well for me.

Also. Getting a muscle relaxer has helped a lot. I only take half what was prescribed and it helps my muscles without side effects.

I hope you have a better morning tomorrow.

I hope you didn't injure it. I know it doesn't take much for my muscles to go into spasms. It's crazy how this fibro works! I could never take muscle relaxants due to addiction problem. Since my back has been in real bad shape my Dr. gave me some. It really does help, but it knocks me out easily. I use heat when my muscles go into spasms. It really does help.

Spasms to me is when I can't move that part of my body because it hurts too much.

I havnt been officially diagnosed yet, but the nurse at the ER siad in her oppinion thats what it is. I was hospitalized more than 4 months ago for a seperate ailment... i have a Cavernous Malformation in my right frontal lobe that has more then doubled in size in the last 9 months. A referal was sent out for a surgeon and im on 2,000mg of kepra and 1,000 depokote. sometimes i miss a dose.

The pain started within a month after i started the medications// and so far non of my doctors think the meds nor my siezure (caused from the cerebral CM blood leaks) are related. but before then i did not experience the cronic and worsening pain. i thought 3 months ago the pain was bad, its seems like i keep relearning what pain really means.

ps just had a huge one in my foot and left elbow. sharp, my joints are now stiff, in my hands and wrist..

my joints are locking up... stiffening... and leaves long durations of pain... it hurts wrighting this..
my hands are of a 90yr old... my sharp jabbing pains hit in weird places and times... the prolonged ones to... muscle spasms occur daily, overall shakyness, and fatigue. I have told all my "doctors" but my primary ignorged it, my nuerologist wants to do a nerve test... hopfully that will bring some clarity to there minds and the minds of my friends and family that this is real.

but in the meantime im battling my boddy to be pain free... I know im loosing... today was a nightmare...
I sometimes think that i don't want to see where this in going/ becuase i swear its worsening.

even though im new to all this stuff, i think i either have fibro or Myofascial. diagnosis is taking too long and I'm loosing hope for life. im a burden and thats all anyone will even see me as.

Im 23 yrs old with a little girl that deserves a mom without Pain!!

Awwww...you know any one of pur problems, would be enough all by itsself...but when they hit us at once...it hard to handle...

One day at a time is all we can do

Hoping tomorrow is better desy

if you need calcium, that can cause spasms too. I discovered this when I was diagnosed with osteoporosis and was told to take calcium twice a day. I noticed the difference.

I also use trigger point therapy on myself and that helps with pain, too. I did cure my frozen shoulder this way.
