Muscle relaxer induced coma

Randomly, I woke up Saturday morning feeling like I had thrown my back out. Friday night I attended my company Christmas party and upheld my policy on not getting drunk at company events. I did wear "high" heels (they were only one inch) and my feet hurt by the end of the night, but my back felt fine. Perhaps I am a violent, raging lunatic in my sleep? Perhaps I am an athlete in my sleep? A contortionist?
Anywho, I've spent the last 5 days laying in multiple positions - none of which are comfortable, except laying on my back with my knees up on my chest (kinda-fetal-position-like) - and whining and wincing. When I am up and about, I walk sort-of hunched over like an old woman but without the walker or cane. (A cane! I definitely *need* a cane!) Also I lean on things a lot which Im sure people must interpret as me being very casual.
My doctor poked around at my back and gave me some muscle relaxers and exercises. The trouble is, the muscle relaxers just make me fall asleep and it is very impossible to exercise then. Also it is hard to go to work when one is either in intense pain or in a muscle relaxer induced coma.
Speaking of, at least Pancho has been enjoying my unconsciousness:



Good times.
