BACK PAIN

I just started having some back pain. Started after Christmas. I also do Rock Steady Boxing could it be a pulled muscle from that or is is common with PD. I take 25/100 siminet 4x daily. 2 mucuna and CBD when I go to bed. Thinking of adding Manitol and NAC. So confusing don't know what to take, CBD and mucuna I think help.

Thanks

Gabapentin, 300mg, 2X day, for nerve related back pain.

It could be a pulled muscle or it could be muscle spasm from the PD. My back always lets me know when my meds are running out because I have a spot of dystonia that alerts me and hurts like hell. But on the other hand, I also seem to hurt myself when I take classes. Hurt my back in a yoga class and hurt my shoulder in a pilates class. I am an enthusiastic exerciser, but that doesn't work anymore. I actually have to pay attention to my body. Do your meds help the pain?

My back pain drives me absolutely insane! Driving and shifting gears brings it on, as does lifting or pulling. It preceded Rock Steady. I always feel better after a RSB session. If you get relief from mucuna let me know!

Thanks for your reply. I have RSB this morning hope I feel better. I'm not sure if the Mucuna is helping but will keep taking it. I know the CBD helps me sleep all night. I wish I could find a doctor that specializes in treating with Mucuna as from what I have read it will help.

I go to a chiropractor for back pain, which also preceded Rock Steady. Stretching & massage will also help. Let them know about your back pain when you go workout & they can give you some stretches to do.
