..and if anyone knows that, it's me.. just wokemup one morning in 1982 with my neck hurting.. it's never gotten better.. 2 level neck fusion, quarterly migraine injections, hundreds of chiro adjustments, massages and TENS units, creams, pills.. you name it.. Since 1982..
C3/4 & C4/5 were flattened and blown out so bad they smashed my spinal cord flat.. it's a miracle I wasn't paralyzed or at least partially numb from the neck down.. most people who know me say I'm numb from the neck up.. Never had numbness, tho.. just severe pain..
Had surgery in 2017, been doing injections since 2019.. that combo has helped, but it's still bad, but st least livable.. but from 1982 to 2017 I was in agony at least 4 days of every week..
So, I feel your pain.. do whatever you can to fix it NOWmbefore you have a forever problem like me..
Friendship is like peeing your pants.. Everybody can see it, but only you can feel the warmth..
