I use to take valium but thye took me off of it because it wasnt helping me anymore.I think I may know some of the problem dont mean to sound gross but sometimes when I have to go no 2 I have to really push to get it out and I can feel the muscles start to hurt from pushing so much.I did that today to .MY left shoulder hurts but I think that is from knitting and crocheting so much.how have you been doing?
