Yes, it is. My pdoc said that SSRIs can sometimes cause a Parkinson's like muscle tightening. (on most ssri's my neck gets stiff and sore and I get muscle spasms in my back). He was thinking it might work for that if the back pain is similar to the TD stuff. We'll see if it works. He said if it does work, it should help immediately.
How are you, PHillipa? I just wanted to tell you "publicly" what an important member of the board you are.
Love,
Marsha
