So I started getting neck and back spasms around November and since then it has just gotten worse by the day! How it happened? I have no idea.
I first went to the doctor in the beginning of January and he gave me a referral for Physical Therapy and a prescription of Motrin and Soma's. I have to take 3 Motrin(Ibuprofen) a day, and they just make me tired and nauseous. I only take the Soma's at night because they make me extremely loopy. I really don't like the Soma's but they do stop the spasms, but I am still in pain.
Then earlier this month I went to the doctor again and he treated terribly! He wouldn't answer any of my questions, just gave me another prescription and left. I am on Cen Cal so finding a doctor (Not a clinic where I have been going) is very hard! I am now in Physical Therapy and it hasn't been much help. It seems every day the pain gets worse and worse. The spasms and pain is starting to go down my arms and down my back. I don't know what to do?? I'm not able to do a lot of things like I used to, I can barely sit in a car for more than a half hour! What could of caused this? Also, how can I go about finding a new doctor that accepts Cen Cal? My mom wanted to take me to the ER yesterday because I could barely use my upper body but I didn't want to waste the doctors time when there is serious emergency's out there. The pain is just intolerable, I don't know what to do. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you for your time.
