Last weekend (19th) I woke up and could not stand straight. My lower back was killing me. I've NEVER had lower back problems so wasn't real sure what to do. I decided I could home treat so used some muscle relaxers I had at home, pain meds and ice packs.
Well by the end of the day I just KNEW I had some type of kidney/bladder/uti thing going on too-----Sunday I daren't leave the house because when I had to "go" I had to "go". (I mean by the time I formed the thought "I need the bathroom"--it was too late
Monday I'm not any better so decide to contact my PT. I go in for PT and am telling my PT my symptoms and add "to top it off I have some kind of bladder/kidney thing going on too". He asked what muscle relaxer I was taking and how often. My script says one tablet every 4 - 6 hours--I was doing one every 4 hours on the dot. Then he started laughing. (We're actually friends as I have been seeing him for 6 years now so he knew I would find what he was about to tell me funny too)
Apparently, I had so much "muscle relaxer" in me that all of my lower body muscles were "relaxed". "ALL" of them.
So I stopped the muscle relaxers and my "kidney/bladder problem" went away.
Learn something new every day.
Anyway by Friday I was upright and went away for the weekend. Just got home today and could use a muscle relaxer from the long trip but I want to go to work tomorrow.
