Help urgent please!

I had a tearful phone call from Mom of a 4 month old.  MD just told her to
stop breastfeeding immediately. He had prescribed Flexeril/cyclobenzaprine for
her for acute muscle spasms in Rt. arm from shoulder to fingers, etiology
unknown.

Mom states her muscles are locked and she cannot use Rt. arm at all.
Physio. will be started as soon as possible.

Anyone know any alternative meds or is this one OK?
