[QUOTE="504RP, post: 1812907, member: 40335"] I am taken Diclofenac 1-2x/day as needed. Am trying to not take any at all unless I just absolutely can’t bear it no more. Or when I have the unexpected leg contractions at which point I would take any thing to stop those. Have some kind of meds for leg muscle cramps that doesn’t do much at all. Was talking to my friend who is going to have the implant surgery and told him I don’t know why doctors want you to do physical therapy for back injuries. I don’t think there is any kind of physical therapy that can help relieve back pain. My friend says physical therapy is more an insurance thing than anything thing else. Said insurance companies want to try the less expensive treatments first which if I owned an insurance company could probably understand. Same goes for injections. But looking at it from someone who has severe back problems. I am afraid that physical therapy and injections could cause more damage to a back injury. And am afraid to have either of those treatments done. But it looks as if I am going to get insurance to pay for my medical bills I will have to do whatever the doctors tell me to do. I know what you mean about the driving too. I shouldn’t be driving period. Really shouldn’t be driving on the freeway ever. When I have a muscle contraction attack. I don’t have very much time at all to react. Have learned that usually coming inside out of the heat into air conditioning is what triggers the muscle cramps. Have never had an attack like that happen while driving yet. Usually they happen after I have been out in the heat all day bailing hay, between that and using the clutch on the tractor all day and then walking into the air conditioning is what triggers the muscle contractions.
