I pulled the big muscle next to the wing bone in my back. this is the 4th day in tremendous pain. cant take a very deep breath. the muscle is very hard and large. could it be trapping a nerve that cannot function due the muscle. my dr. has perscribed hydroco/aceta 5-325 mg for severe arthritus pain. i refuse to take as perscribed . i take 1/2 twice daily , and only if i cant handle my body myself. this muscle is killing me. can my perscription be combined with diazepam (which was the rx about 4 mo. ago for muscle then. my dr. is on vacation for 2 more weeks. i am 76 and go 24 seven. this has certainly slowed me down. need your advise. tks so much. ms davies.
ok, it is now really not recommended to pair narcotics and benzodiazepine. There have been innumerable overdoses and also an increased death rate independent of overdoses associated with this combination. You are mentioning the very lowest doses of these, but still....physical therapy, muscle relaxers are alternatives.
