I love Soma's because they work very well. However, the side affects are pretty scary. ie: loosing your balance and falling, often, slurring your words, can't walk, can't talk, can't remember a dang thing, mind won't work. Plus it is the most addictive med I've ever taken. Much, by far, than my time-released Morphine!! I kid you not!! If you can, I recommend you stay away from it, period. It's just not that great! I wish I could give it up! Help!!! Rebecca in Tucson, AZ
