No, I haven't tried Skelaxin but I'm glad you're trying a muscle relaxant. I take Flexeril. I hope the Skelaxin helps. Hugs, Mare ... for ... Thanks....
You're welcome. Andy may not qualify or if he does they may not be able to offer you anything more than you're already doing, but at least it's another option...
