A few days ago, my neck and the very top of my back began to hurt really badly. When it started, I tried my Zanaflex. No help. Then, my Flexeril. No help. Then, some Tramadol. No help. Then, heat. Little help. Then, some ice. Little help. Needless to say, it’s been driving me crazy.

I would call the family doctor, but she would end up asking me if I ever went in for the physical therapy. The conversation wouldn’t end well, when I would tell her that I hadn’t gone in for the PT. Of course, she might be forgiving or she might not care. I doubt it, though. But I don’t think this is something that physical therapy would help, especially since it feels like this has to do with more than just strength & stuff. This is one of those pains that is accompanied by huge cracking sounds whenever I move my neck the slightest bit.

I had a lot more that I wanted to say, but the brain is not working well enough, so I guess this post is just about me whining about the neck pain.
