Do you exerience back spasms pain so intense it makes you black out?

Today was the second time this year I’d thrown out my back. The back muscle spasms are so bad it puts me in entirely different state of mind. It’s due to the amount of brain piercing bursts of pains I experience. Transferring from the floor to the couch almost had me black out. It only takes the slightest move to trigger the spasmed muscle(s). It’s like playing a game of Russian roulette but it’s your body movements. Cool huh?

Do y’all get this too? Why is it so fucking god awful painful? How do you handle your episodes?

My husband had the worst sciatica, and this book helped him so much

How would a book help in these situations?

The book itself doesn't do much. It's the information in the book that can help.

But honestly what information would really make such a difference (next to the basic things like good posture etc.

In them? Not at all. But by reading it and understanding probable causes and stretches/exercises that can alleviate or prevent the pain, hopefully things would get better.

That being said, consulting a doctor would still be a good idea. But having something you can do immediately, that gives you tools that could help right away, isn't bad either.
