I suffer from degenerative disc disease and currently have 5 herniated discs- 2 severely degenerated in cervical area, 1 moderate in thoracic region, and 2 moderate in my lumber region. I had surgery in 2007 to remove C2-3 disc and I have a bone fusion as well as plate and screws. I have taken several different medicines for muscle spasms from my damaged spine. Everyone I have spoken to tells me that Carisoprodol is the best medicine for my condition. I have tried Flexeral, Baclofen, and my new medicine is tizanidine, and I don t believe it is working any more than the Baclofen. I have no insurance and am self pays so I search for cheapest medicines. The Carisoprodol is actually half the price of my current meds. I really need help and my Dr just switches my medicines around. What can I do??????? Thank you- Tammi Drawdy
