Grabbing onto that "good moment"! Who knows when it'll come again. Like that breath b/w sinking and swimming. Treading water it's hardToday as I come up from the #pain #musclespasm choak hold I #finallybreathe. What to do FIRST? I'VE MISSED SO MUCH. #dystonia #cpp #gon #fibro

#Melexitine it could save me from searing nerve pain but no more #zanaflex for #spasticity & #musclespasm. 1.5 weeks #robaxin failed me UNTIL I discovered the classes of #musclerelaxors in a #ncbi publication & was a #painadvocate for myself! "I'm paralyzed, hightone, vomiting"

That's what I told my #painmanagment #doctor. #Melexitine might have a chance at #successfulpainmanagement IF my muscle spasms were treated with the #rightclassofmedication. We have to be #cpp #pharmasist #medicalresearcher #insurancecoder & looking out for our own SELF!

I searched for into on #mechanismofaction for #zanaflex & #robaxin to see why the Robaxin was failing me. I found:
#Skeletalmusclerelaxants
#spasticityvsspasm then called doc & made a switch to a Med that has let up the choak hold today. I asked for it. https://www.practicalpainmanagement.com/treatments/pharmacological/non-opioids/review-skeletal-muscle-relaxants-pain-management

Thankfully #baclofen was okayed and last night was SLEEP and not #musclecontractions choaking me and waking with #migraines due to #hightone & searing #burningpain. What a diff knowing what I need for what my body is doing makes! If only I had less #brainfog so happened more.
