Hi, on    Fri, 17 Jan 1997 22:27:51 -0500, you wrote for suggestions
regarding cramping on your mother's right side.

I am wondering whether your mother has tried any muscle relaxers for overly
stretched muscles, which seems to be a side effect for some of us from the
other meds.  I have recently had good success for neck pain & cramping, which
can radiate down my whole right side, by my neuro increasing my amitriptyline
(Elavil) from  25 mg to 100 mg at night.  In addition, I generally take two
Xanax .25 mg/day.

Also, some of us also receive benefit from regular massage from a trained and
licensed massage therapist.

Good luck.
