hi everyone yes I’m still kicking,seam to be getting there .

Down to 2 pred now. A strange problem now is neck ake manly down left side about 2” behind ear all down neck. Feel sure it’s not muscular but u never know

I was was wondering if it could be a flare.pain killers doesn’t seem to help 🤷🏽‍♂️

Still suffering from low blood oxygen's maybe poor circulation is giving me wrong readings

Only bad symptoms is this neck ache

Take care everyone hope you’re all on an upper

If painkillers don't help the it could be a flare.. but if I recall you do have a lot of other health issues, so might be related to them

Have you changed pillows recently, been doing anything or sitting in an awkward position that could account for this. Does heat or cold therapy help?

I have been doing some plumbing under sink 🤪 witch was a pain , but this doesn’t feel muscular as it comes and goes worst when I exert myself 🥹

Yes, but you might have wrenched something whilst you were in an unusual position… Hope you can sort it out..

The position you describe would fit with the sternocleidomastoid muscle being tight.
