It doesnt help the pain plus upsets my stomache and gives me a headache. I wonder what medicine should I try or ask for? The pain is near the middle of my shoulders, and I read Robaxin is for lower back pain,,,any advice? Thanks!

Robaxin is a muscle relaxant and works on the nervous system. If this is not working then return to your Doctor and explain that it is not working. I do not advise you walk in and demand a different drug, just explain it is not working. As for'lower back pain'drugs do not'target'any particular areas, so even if you had pain in your finger or toe, you would probably still be prescribed the same drug. Best of Luck
