Dang. sounds a lot like someone I know, very well...
ME! (but not an electrician)


I have taken Cyclobenzaprine after several back surgeries, to get rid of muscle spasms at night while trying to sleep. That sh~t is terrible in its self, the night mares were scary, walking in my sleep and the likes, it didn't take long to sh~t can that stuff !


I hate the side effects too. I usually take either 1/2 or 1/4 of a pill at a time. My boss is about 6 ft 12 , skinny guy, and takes 2 whole ones at a time .
