@KeithDavid In my personal experience getting a doc to prescribe Soma is pretty difficult. I have a bulging disc pushing into my nerve in my spine. Doctors started with flexeril, I complained of no relief. They switched me to robaxin, I complained of no relief. They added meloxicam, I complained of no relief. They added Tramadol, I complained of no relief. They added Tylenol 3's, I said it helped slightly with the pain however I still needed a better muscle relaxant. They tried metaxalone, baclofen, and tizanidine. After trying basically every muscle relaxant other than Soma I complained I still wasn't getting relief. They said it just seemed like no muscle relaxants were working for me, at this point I claimed I had searched google and heard of one they hadn't tried yet called Soma. The doctor insisted that Soma was a drug of abuse and caused intoxication and didn't want to prescribe it. She said since the Tylenol 3's were working she could double my dose of those. The doctor literally offered to double my codeine script rather than prescribe Soma. I also had an occupational therapist as this injury was preexisting but the major contributing factor was lifting things at work. Neither my primary care, nor occupational therapist, nor pain management clinic would prescribe me Soma. I know this is just one person's experience with a handful of doctors, but I thought I'd share. For me it seems near impossible to get a valid Soma prescription. I remember before it was scheduled getting 180 Watson brand Somas delivered 2 day shipping for like $90. Now it is scheduled and other than foreign countries is very difficult for me personally to get.

And regular old diazepam doesn't do it for you? Or prazepam, I've heard some people that love it for lower back pain. There's also Chlormezanone but that's probably even less available

No, sadly diazepam does nothing for my lower back issues. I do however get a much better night's sleep if I have one. I've actually never heard of Chlormezanone, but like you said it could be difficult to get also. I'll have to look into that one, thanks.
