I woke up one day and my neck was sore...no biggie, slept wrong, whatever. Within 8 hours the sore neck turned into severe shooting pain from my C6 level in my back, out my shoulder, shooting from my underarm out my right chest, bicep, forearm and hand. This was almost 6 weeks ago. Since then I have ...

    Im in the same position as you, if you wanna read past posts.

    Doctors make you feel like dirt. I have been told to loose weight and that would help the pain and i straight out said that I would not of gained 30 pounds if you did'nt put me on a med that made the side effects worse than i allready had. Lyrica, is one of the worse meds out there. My fingers (knuckels)were stuck in bent position, and ever since i was on that, now developed knee problems- ugg, so much pain and inflamation. I have been told to go home and take advil. Been told dr. will not see me anymore because she can't help me. Have been told im a bad faker.

    Anyways to cut threw all the doctors and pain clinics and specialist. I swear on UPPER CERVICAL CARE. I got more relief from them than i have had since 2000 when i injured my back. This is a new form of Chriopractic and it will help anything from migrains to any pain, just everything. All i can say is check out the web site and find one as close as possible to where you live. I guess doctors and chriopractors are learning this new process. And i even heard you can ask your doctor to take the class that is offered. I heard about this UPPER CERVICAL late one night when i awoke from the pain and seen a info on t.v. - of course i thought it sounded to good to be true. So i did some research and made a app. -luckily he does 2 hardship cases a month and i got one. Im on medicare and have no income, so i was so very lucky. So i did the 1 1/2 hour drive for about 2 months and it was very hard at first, but it was getting easier to do the drive by the week. Gas was very expensive and to find someone to watch my children was very hard to find.

    But unless you wanna keep getting treated like crap and put threw the ringer, this is honestly the only hope. My pain level went down by 1 the first time. Everyone is different. I had energy like when i was younger. I was told it will take 1 month for every year you have been injured/problem started.

     

    Have you ever heard of the saying "GET YOUR HEAD ON STRAIGHT" Well that's what this place will do. It does not hurt what so ever. Cracking your neck hurts more than this.

    I can't type much longer here,my fingers are so numb. So i hope you check it out, and it will explain everything to you. I pray for you to be pain free and everyone elese on here.

    Best wishes..

     

    And tell your wife that you need her support. I don't know about you, but when i get stressed my pain levelgoes up, or when i get frustrated that i can't do something, cause of the pain, the pain level goes up.
