Along with the crazy anxiety I’ve been having, I’ve had a lot of pain in my neck for the last month and finally had it checked on Monday. The x-rays show a pretty crooked neck which has been causing all the pain.
They think it is a torn ligament in my neck, from long ago, that is the cause of the curvature. It’s just one of those things that I’ve been dealing with for so long, that I didn’t realize it was a problem until my neck started screaming at me.
So now I am getting therapy, which involves exercises, massage and stretching. I’ve had 2 sessions so far (at least 10 more to go) and am already feeling a bit better. I am so thankful to be getting some relief.
sending healing thoughts your way, regina
Thank you Suzanne
Oh, Regina, I’m glad you’re getting some relief and I hope you continue to feel better and better. It has been such a crazy summer, so short. I’m going to email you soon so we can “chat.” Take good care of yourself, let your guys pamper you a bit!
Yes, we totally need to catch-up
Oh, I so understand what you are going thru.
I too have had a huge “crookedness” on my neck for so long that I never thought it was something wrong, I was just used dealing with it.
I thought “I am tired”, “Its the end of the day” and all that.
Wishing you all the best on your healing process.
Thank you
Sending you a big hug of healing energy.xx

Wow! Ouch! (((Hug))) So glad you found help — happy healing, dear Regina!
Thanks for the hug
Sending loving and healing thoughts to you. I am so blessed and grateful for your friendship. Feel better.
Thank you lovely Glenda.
oh, my goodness!!! i hope you’re feeling a bit better after some massage
i started taking Pilates last year & have been trying to correct my posture ever since.
had to take the summer off, & i feel like i’m starting almost at the beginning.
i highly recommend it – but see if your insurance will pay for some private classes. mat classes are usually cheaper, but with a neck injury, you’d want more personal attention!!
Yes, I definitely need help with my posture. An working on that. Private pilates sounds wonderful.
Ouch! Glad that you are getting some relief. Hopefully the pain is distracting you from your inspiring artwork, and I hope you feel even better soon.
Oops! I meant to say “isn’t” distracting… Hope you feel better soon.
Thanks
I’m trying not to let it. Trying to let the art distract me from my pain.
Amazing what we can put up with, right? So glad that you are getting some help and relief. Big (non-neck injuring) hugs! -Shelly
I know. I really have been putting up with this for too long. Thanks for the non-neck injuring hug. I really needed it
oh poor thing! thats quite the curve you got going on there!! yay that you are getting some relief
) Praying and thinking wonderful thoughts towards you! Wish I could come over and spoil you and take care of you a bit. xoxox Love you amazing girl!
Thanks Tammy. Wish we could hang out too. That would cure me for sure!
Oh man. That seems really painful! I’m glad you’re feeling better though.
