the only time i have ever been given Valium or ever taken Valium was in the ER and they gave me a shot in the butt...i never felt like it did anything for the spasams i was having but thats just me. i am taking Baclofen for all that along with Avinza and percs for breakthrough and all this is helping alot with my fibro. But i have noticed with the Avinza that i am getting dull headaches but they say my body needs to adjust and if i am still getting them when i go back to my pain doc they will change it to OC's.
