Muscle Relaxers? Names Of Please?

A MySpondylitisTeam Member asked a question 💭
Stockport, UK

I often see that people take these meds but don't know what the names of them are so I can ask the doctors if they would help me sleep without so much pain. If you take them please can you give me the name of the medication you take and if it helps. Thank you. X

What Symptoms Constitute A ‘flare’?

A MySpondylitisTeam Member asked a question 💭
Boston, MA

I was diagnosed in 2016 with peripheral spondyloarthritis. My symptoms were mainly in my shoulders, knees, Achilles and fingers/toes
12 days ago I woke up with excruciating pain in my sacrum radiating across my low back and upper butt. Sometimes it shot into my groin and hips
I have spent the last 5 days flat in a recliner. I can’t get out if a sitting position or stand upright without horrendous pain. Rheumatologist worried it was a fracture so sent me ER. CT scan showed no fracture.… read more

Does Anyone On Here Have Arachnoiditis?

A MySpondylitisTeam Member asked a question 💭
Houston, TX

Does anyone on here have Arachnoiditis, I was diagnosed with it 16 years ago, and I am in torment. I am now on 647mcg. Intrathecal Fentanyl pump therapy, 2 oxycontin, 2 cymbalta, 2 lyrica, and 2 diclofenac, and it only shaves the edge off the pain at best.

Does anyone have any suggestions that might help?

I am trying acupuncture next as I hear it sometimes helps.

Thanks I advance,
Rick Lillard

I relate to your pain but the only thing that's really helped is acupuncture and a deep back massage. Preferably Thai massage as it doesn't leave me in agony for a week afterwards.

What Can I Take? I Am Allergic To Most Of The Meds Made To Help.

A MySpondylitisTeam Member asked a question 💭
Ellensburg, WA

So far I have found out I am allergic to most of the biologics and with having Interstitial Cystitis I am unable to do methotrexate as I am not to have Folic Acid. The only one not tried yet is Otezla and due to some of the other meds, I am on I am not able to take it. I am at a loss and I am hurting too badly to even function.😭
