**Purpose:** Muscle spasms *(Started Dec 29, 2011)*
Date	Dosage	Perceived effectiveness	Side Effects	Adherence	Burden
May 28, 2012	6 mg Daily	Major	None	Usually	Not at all

Date: May 28, 2012
Advice & Tips: Fasciculatons had gotten so bad that they would keep me awake. I had argued with my health care workers for months about anxiety meds. I wanted Xanax or Ativan and they wanted me on Paxil. I kept buying Xanax on the street, finally they agreed to give me Valium (Diazepam). My Fasciculations got much better. I still have them but it's much much better now.
