back pain and medical weirdness

So it seems I pulled some muscles in my mid-back last Thursday. So things seemed to be getting better, until I went to the clinic Tuesday. There, the doc put me through gymnastics to see what causes the pain. It worked. The pain returned. Now I'm on muscle relaxants in addition to the ibuprofen.

Small problem. Seems when I take the relaxants I turn into a very mean person. And I have had some wacky violent dreams (if I remember correctly, one where I threw a pint glass down in the middle of a party at my house and yelled at everyone to leave) so I'm not going to take those any more.

I think I'll give a massage a try.

Just business as usual.
