I stretch and try to sit right, but ever since I started a new job 2 weeks ago I have been having terrible back spasms, also thigh and calf ones. They last all night sometimes. > My doc also increased my dose of Oxy by 60MG total per day, was having withdrawal symptoms after 4-6 hours (not 8+).. none of it is helping me! > Any suggestions? I do take Baclofen, but that has not helped at all. I would hate to add a muscle relaxer to the mix, but not sure what to do! > As per Kathy M on here several years ago, I requested a presc for Klonopin (Chlorazepam) for they typical lag/back spasms. I take .5 mg before bed and if that not enough .5 more. If I am achy I take a 50 mg tab of Tramadol too. Works for me. Klonopin is an anti-seizure medication. In a sense, we are having neurological seizures in our muscles affected by TSC. Rick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
