Help, I live in horrible back spasms all the time.


Posted by Sue Porter

My friend, Kim Brewer said to write.  Broke the L2 30 yrs. ago in car accident - whip lash.  If I stand for more than 20 min., sit too long, or sit in the wrong chair, I go into total back spasms.  When the temperature changes, I go into spasms.  I've tried lots and lots, with little releaf.  Even had 6 nerves killed to be able to stand longer.  I have an inversion bed that I use regularly.  I can cut the pain about 80 percent, but still stay in spasms.  I've been doing "Pain Free for Life" exercises, and get a little help.  If I go to the gym, which I would love, and do just a little too much, it throws me into spasms.  I've worked with at least 4 therapists over the years, and I don't seem to get any help.  I take muscle relaxants and other things regularly. 

Thank you for reading this, I am on a quest to be well!   Sue
