Okay,,,the ultimate price for being a nurse,,,,,,back pain. I have tried everything, minus the pain meds, for this back of mine. At times it feels as if the muscles are being wrung out like a towel. Especially my dorsal on the left hand side. Have tried massage, but only works for a short time, and gets too expensive. I have a back massager, but can't get to where it hurts. Nothing is helping, and now that I'm about to turn the big 51 next weekend, just want some releif. Anyone have any suggestions besides muscle relaxers and meds that will snow me. I have a very low tolerance level to almost all meds
