im not sure. im not a doctor by any means but i think if i had a good muscle relaxer i think thats would be all i need for a while
SO its just your lower back muscles? No pain in the buttock muscles, or maybe around the tailbone?
The reaon I'm asking is that you are at the prime age to start showing symptoms of diseases like A.S. etc... it comes like a thief in the night, with no prior warning.
WHat I'd do is at least phone the GP, tell him you are broke, and that you only want a reference preferably to someone thats not too expensive... doctors are people too, (well some).
