hey lynz i say if it is really is agravating you, sound like it is hun, best to get it checked. if in doubt always get seek medical advice. if they put it down to fibro so be it, but if something else you will be able to get advice & best treatment. have a gd day hun. x lou x

I have a pain relieving gel from my docs and use for times like this and it does help. when he first gave me it I thought he was mad, was i going to rub this stuff all over but I have found it has its uses. Its worth keeping in.

Hope your neck is soon better

always best to get looked at ! mine went 3 times from feb 2011 and had severe tingling etc and ended with an MRI which showed disc pressing on my spinal cord with compression on nerves.. always best to have checked the docs will know whether it is muscle or anything else and how far to take the matter, should never ignore if you can't move aswell.. Goodluck ..just explain your symptoms exactly as they are
