More Pain
My neck has been killing me all day. I don't know what I did to it... it's been hurting for a couple of days now. I think it gets better in the day and then at night I sleep wrong on it and when I wake up it's bad again. I took a nap today and man did it hurt when I woke up. I shouldn't have napped... I lay down at 6:30 pm and woke up at 7:30. I'm supposed to go to bed by 10:30 pm, so I might have to take some klonopin to knock me out. I'm supposed to hang out with my friend Kenia again tomorrow. She's sick so she's not working. She has been sick for a while now so she's probably not contagious. I hung out with her for a bit yesterday too. I'm not sick yet... I work with sick people all the time when I'm at work... I work in the urgent care section of the clinic now, so it's people who are sick enough to not be able to wait for a doctor's appointment. I had a guy with bronchitis cough on me a couple times last week. It just comes with the job. I need to go to the clinic tomorrow or Friday to pick up my meds. I don't know if I will be home in time tomorrow... I doubt it. I just hope I sleep well tonight so I can have fun tomorrow.

Hope the pain in better tomarrow Ive had neck pain before and its horrible when you cant move it to good... really limits what you can do. The only thing that seemed to help mine was advil and applying heat to help relax the muscles. I have one of those rice bags you throw in the microwave a couple minutes and that works great for neck pain. Hope you get feeling better.
sorry about your neck pain, it is so painful and you use your neck all the time. sorry your friend is sick and how nice to go and visit. hope you get sleep and enjoy or visit. hugss
Bummer on the stiff neck pain! Have you tried stretches to get the muscles to limber up? Hope to hear soon your are feeling better!
I hope the neck gets better and you find out what is causing the problem. Did you think maybe to try another pillow? or roll a large towel up and put that under your necK?
Feel better
i have that right now with the neck, i\'m using a muscle rub for it. i also switched from two pillows (which is easier for breathing and reading etc) to one pillow. its doable and helped the neck. hope it works out. yoga also helps that, so does swimming backstroke. xxoo
