I can barely sit here and type this. I have a couple of slipped disks in my neck from previous injuries and I guess I am feeling them. They havent ever felt like this :oops: Man it feels like I am getting beheaded constantly....I am on 800mgs of Ibuprofen and it doesnt touch the pain. Looked for a old bottle of flexorall but it was throw out. I think I may be headed for the E-room on this one......shitting spinal injuries.
OUCH
Funny how I didnt lift anything big yesterday....

slept on it wrong, I have that happen from time to time I use a cold can of beer or soda and roll it in a thin wash cloth lay flat on the floor and put it under my neck perpendicular to my spine + and just let the mucles relax, often this helps but it takes twenty min. to relax enough for it to help.
Just an Idea

I've had pinched nerves in the neck simmilar to this, they really suck, but with all the sugeries around here the last year we always have tynol #3 it does ok, the worst ever was about 7 years ago I had a pinched nerve in my lower back, OUCH! AND I RETTY MUCH JUST HAD TO DRAG MY LEFT LEG BEHIND ME :shock: I suffered for a coupple days, then took a perkocett, curled up on the floor an slept for 2 hours. went to the bone crusher for 1-2 months and worke pretty well.

ouch - back problems are the worst.
the BEST thing you can do is let it rest. Hard to do for you, I'm sure.

That sucks man - I have slipped discs in my back and they act up time and again and it is such a pain - completely immobilizing. Good thing for me is it doesn't hurt if I don't move though. I hate running and exercising, but I do just enough (run twice a week) to keep the back muscles built up. I say go ahead and get the ER over with - you'll feel so much better....and maybe get the goooood stuff!
On the other hand, I spent all day in a DUI class - I would have almost rather had a slipped disc! I have one more full day and two more night classes to go before I finish.
Anywho, go to the ER and get it checked out - might be a hot nurse that gives you a neck massage there!

I feel for ya man! I get spasms in my middle back between the shoulder blades, and when it happens I AM DONE! Doc says exesize and streaching is the only thing for it. Along with a perscription for Flexoril, and some left over Percocet and a few leftover Vicoden!
Woke up one night a year or so ago with my back, stumbled to the bathroom cabinet, thought I grabbed a couple of flexoril, but in my painful and 3/4 asleep state I grabbed two 7.5 Vicoden. That made for an interesting ride. didnt get out of my chair for a day.
But I forgot about my back hurting!
Good Luck with yours!

Its funny the symptoms sound the same though. Physical therapy has helped immensely

after I had my pinched nerve, that's when I started working at the toyo dealer, trying to work on smaller lighter stuff, but now I'm back to working on all makes. Now after I had my knee sugery they found arthritus, and suspect I could have that in my lower back, along with the knee I had worked on and one of my elbows. :smile:

yea I know it, had no idea about the arthritus/infllamation until they took pics during my knee sugery back in mid july. :shock: they called it rhumotoid arthritus, but when I saw the specialist he was not sure what it was, but prescribed me four sour tasting pills to take every day, it does seem to be helping I guess. :roll: basically my immune system is attacking my joints. 🙁:

What was that super immune system stuff they gave to aids patients? I thought someone here had tried it or was on it for their immune system.
mrtazwrench
my immune system is fine, it just desided to attack some of my joints for sh!ts and giggles. #-o
