Found this description online. So true. I have had this for days. Pdoc finally gave me ativan for it yesterday. Omg i feel so much better. (Of course i skipped my morning dose so i could go to starbucks - probably a bad plan!)

(1981) describes the sensation:[12]

...[It comes] from so deep inside you, you cannot locate the source of the pain … The muscles of your jawbone go berserk, so that you bite the inside of your mouth and your jaw locks and the pain throbs. … Your spinal column stiffens so that you can hardly move your head or your neck and sometimes your back bends like a bow and you cannot stand up. … You ache with restlessness, so you feel you have to walk, to pace. And then as soon as you start pacing, the opposite occurs to you; you must sit and rest. Back and forth, up and down you go … you cannot get relief …

I was pacing sitting pacing couldnt hold my attention on anything!!! Torture i tell you. From rexulti.
