Done yesterday (20100714 We)

0714 We
  * up 6:30; W=196.2; drugs, nose, teeth; dishes, coffee
  % right back, shoulder, neck muscles hurty.  Ouch.
  & naproxen and cyclobenzaprine.  Helps _some_.
  % _very_ sleepy ~11am
  * walk:  the Mexican place; S. on the Guadalupe R. trail
  % sleepy in the afternoon, too.  Not to mention evening.

Note to self: cyclobenzaprine in the morning will do a good job at loosening up spasmed back muscles. It will also turn me into pretty much of a zombie the rest of the day.

I did get in a pretty good walk. Nobody reported a zombie walking along the trail by the airport around lunchtime, but I may just not be reading the right blogs.

It does get so frustrating balancing the help vs drawbacks from meds and/or treatments.

So maybe not quite a zombie yet - or you just cover it up really well :).

Ah yes the joys/drawbacks of Flexeril aka cyclobenzaprine, I know them well.

I am glad you still managed to get a walk in, I can't do those sort of things on the med, it turns me into mush. Hurting mush, but mush just the same.

It works great at night, as long as I can count on having at least 8 hours before I have to be conscious. Which is to say, mostly on weekends.
