Muscle Spasm
"I have been in hospital for 3 weeks now.  It started out as obstructive jaundice, which they put in a stint and started me on Vidocin.  The vicodin worked great for my abdominal pain, but did nothing for the spasms I started getting in my back after being in the hospital bed for over 2 weeks.  Finally, after 2 days of intensely painful and nearly uncontrolable back spasms, they put me on Flexeril.  I&#039;m finally able to move around and breath normally without triggering more spasms.  Thank God for Flexeril.  The pain is nearly gone.  It didn&#039;t shut it out entrirely, but it made it bearable enough that I&#039;m finally able to move, instead of having to stay perfectly still and take shallow breaths to avoid triggering another one."
