    I still have trouble with muscle spasms mostly on the left side of my spine, but when I was diagnosed my Dr sent me to a physical therapist.  She used intense massage with heat and stimulation.  I asked why it wasn't working, but she laughed and said she was still trying to break up the concrete in my back.  The therapy eventually relieved the pain and spasms after the "concrete" was penetrated.  Hope you find someone to help.  I take Lyrica for my Fibromyalgia.

    Hi Kaz I get muscle spasms in my back, pelvis, thighs, calves, insteps of feet and my toes very sore and not nice normally when walk on uneven ground or get cold and has happened in swimming pool before. Sorry havent been in touch much was involved in work car accident where my vehicle got hit at speed from behind into a one I was stationery behind waiting to turn into play golf so body in absolute agony from being hit and pushed into two BMW 4x4's the bruising grazes and near loss of a finger to the airbag casing is still bleeding and showing no sign of mending. Was given oralmorph and calpol as couldnt canulate at the scene or in the ambulance but no relief whatsoever also suffered bang to head from impact. Received acknowledgement my PIP been received so fingers crossed no problem with this. Have left a message for my OT and Physio at Pain Rehab as will need all their help to guide my recovery to this and get at best back on my feet. Gentle hugs. Julia

      Hi Julia Im so sorry to hear about your accident, thats terrible, the sheer agony you must of been, in bless you.With having fibro you may find that things take longer to heal, Ive found that with me that things seem to take loner to heal and get over.Im sure your OT and the physio will help to quide you in your recovery. Rest as much as you can.Im pleased youve had acknowledgement from pip thats good it shouldnt hopefully be too long before you hear back about your face to face assessement.. Mine was done at home by a psyciatric nurse she was very nice very proffessional. it took 1hr to do she goes through the questions on the form and checks that the answears youve given are what is written on the form. she then writes a report everything gets sent to the dwp  for them to decide. it took me 6 months from start to finish I got awarded pip. I am keeping my fingers crossed that you are sucessful too. I am wishing you a speedy recovery from your accident. look after yourself thinking of you gentle hugssmilex
