Cyclobenzaprine 10 mg. Taken irregularly so as to avoid tolerance buildup. I just use it for relief from pain flares. I’ve been on it for 4 years, off and on to keep tolerance low.

I understand how stressful it can be to meet the end of the treasure map . Finding what medicine works best for you might take some time , especially since medications aren’t exactly tailored to each individual . If you’re lucky to have a doctor who’s dedicated to help you customize a “cocktail” you might skip all the crazy narcotics and narrow down your path in a shorter time spam. I would love to share with you the medications I take but everyone varies and might react differently . Doctors can identify a dose but it’s not guaranteed to be perfect…I’ve been hospitalized due to a negative response from four separate medications. Other then medications I can suggest a buying a TENS unit (you can purchase one on Amazon). Please try to keep and open mind and stay positive! You are worthy of a smooth and complete recovery and I wish you the best🧡

I take cyclobenzaprine 10mg but that's only because I got it from the ER. Never been to a doc for this to see if there's anything better out there.

I also take cyclobenzaprine 10 mg and it really does help. I would suggest going to a pain specialist. And explaining your situation. They are really good at helping you find a solution including a pain management plan.
