I had visited my primary care physician the week before and we discussed the back pain I was felt when lying on hard surfaces. I needed something to get me through 5 weeks of radiation treatment and Aleve wasn’t going to hack it. I got two prescriptions, one for Flexeril and the other for Vicodin. I was hoping to get some relief by using one or both meds. I arrived at radiology office at 6:00 AM for simulation (verification), kind of like dress rehearsal or should I say undress rehearsal for radiation treatment. I had taken one Vicodin about 30 minutes before treatment and was hoping that would do the trick. I got about half way through the simulation before my back went into spasm, forcing my body to move. The Vicodin alone wasn’t working. Radiation treatment was scheduled to start the next day and I was felling very apprehensive.
