Sorry to hear you have had such a day Janet. Often the way we sleep can have an effect on the pain we feel in the morning so if your neck and head haven't been balanced properly on your pillow or your pillows hve slipped it could cause pain on one side of the neck and shoulders. We also often have pain on the side of
the body we use the most. Hope you get a good nights sleep and have a better day tomorrowx
thanks for your reply. i have had a hot bath and taken my pain meds and i am tucked up in bed watching tv. got to give the meds a chance. i have bought a new memory foam pillow and hope this helps.
I am so sorry to read that you are feeling so ill today, and I genuinely hope that you can find some relief to your pain. Good luck with the doctor tomorrow.
Morning I hope you managed some sleep last night and that your neck has relaxed a little.
I tend to sit in a chair and get a large cushion lean into it keeping your back as straight as you can and then try and relax.
Zeb has put really good relaxation techniques up before, with a visulisation picture. I Like to look at holiday snaps always makes me smile or puppy pictures.
Cup of tea get sat down and ttry to get that neck t gently relax.
Sorry to hear of you pain. I can empathise with you totally. My neck and shoulder pain is normally always on my left side. I am suffering terribly with it at the moment, as well as lower back pain. So annoying. Sending gentle hugs to all of you who are suffering. I hope you all feel much better soon. xxx
Hi janetm I also get the pain down the left side it is all way worst than the right yesterday it was my foot, knee, leg, hip and top of my arm all on left side and my body was so tender to touch still is today the covers touching my body is so sore could only have a sheet over me most nights I think i am having a bad flair up as yesterday said to hub i could just cut my leg off which he reply'ed and what about hip' arm 'neck and back you wouldn't get very far with out them all LOL sending hugsxx
Janet sweetheart, ask your doctor about a pain clinic. My neck and shoulders hurt me so bad I couldn't put my head down on a pillow. Now life is much more bearable. Hope this helps and you find relief soon!!! xxx Mitzi
