I had surgery a couple weeks ago and took a painkiller and an anti nausea pill and when I woke up 13 hours later I couldn't feel my face. So I think it's just the drugs. Just enjoy the buzz

Yeah, took that once and believe me it works dandy. I've heard things in regards to soma such as people using it as daily drug use. I mean serious drug use, like crack addict type of stuff. Had a friend who sort of used it once a while for ill prescribed effects. Needless to say, I had to tell him what the drug could do to your body in large doses and he stopped.

ehehehehehe!!!!! You're too funny!

Yeah, Soma will do that to you.

My mother was a registered nurse and we had all kinds of drugs in the medicine cabinet. One time I came home and found my sister, who was like 19 at the time, sitting in front of the TV with a dazed look. I asked her if she was ok. She replied "I can't move my legs". She added that she had taken some "motrin" for her bad ankle or something. I thought that didn't sound right so I asked her where the pills were. She handed me the little bubble packs and I looked on the back. hehehe I thought it was funny. I was like, "Uhm, Krys, this isn't motrin". Duh, she wasn't paying attention - she thought they *looked* like motrin therefore they must be motrin.

Luckily, my mom said that Soma is just a muscle relaxant and that she would be ok because she didn't take too much.

HOWEVER, I do NOT advocate the use of drugs like this for recreational use. That's a big no no. Someone could get themselves into serious health trouble doing that.

James,

it's just the muscle relaxants. I take flexeril sometimes and I'm a goner when I take that. I will be loopy while awake after taking it, when I stop forcing myself to stay awake and fall dead asleep I don't wake up for hours. Then finally I have what I call a flexeril hangover all the next day - I just can't seem to function well at all - responses really slow and can't think of everyday words, etc.

i was in a car accident and was given an Rx for Soma. At the time it did nothing for me, but a few weeks ago I was having some killer back pain because of the weather changing, so I took one. About 20 mins later I was stumbling around the chapter room and decided it would be best if I went and layed down. About 3 hours later I woke up, after sleeping through all of my classes for the day.

In short, yes it will do that to you.

While in San Diego on spring break, my friend and I went to Mexico. You can buy Soma there without a prescription. So, of course, they bought a whole bunch and brought it back to San Diego. That night, they all took about two of them. (Sidenote: I did not take any. I have a lot of drug allergies and I didn't want to risk being allergic to this. I just didn't want my friends calling my parents from San Diego, "Yes, ZTAngel is in the hospital. She took an illegal substance without realizing she was allergic to it.")
Anyways, the all experienced symptoms similar to yours (if they didn't fall asleep within ten minutes after taking it). They could hardly move their legs and their speech was slowed. So, yes, I'm sure it will make it hard to type as well.

Hmmmm this sounds like the guy i used to work with before he got canned. Except he took valium to get baked.

hahahahahaha

my little sis was in a car accident the night before our formal. She messed up her shoulder pretty badly, and the doctor gave her muscle relaxers for it. She didn't NEED to drink at formal! She was doped up on muscle relaxers the whole time!

The main entertainment of the night was just watching her.
