Re: Very scared and trying to breath

You women are all so good to me!! When I question myself, and am I doing good enough with all this treatment. It is such a cycle.....THANK GOD MY HANDS AND FEET AREN'T HURTING NOW!!!

Snolan Capsular tightness sounds like that is the problem or makes sense to me. I found my old MRI last night and in 2006 I had severe whip lash from sliding on black ice, and I hit a utility pole. At the time I would fall asleep and wake up so tight I literally couldn't move. I was married and I would tell my husband to help me, so he would pick me up and carry me to the couch and help me stretch it out. I did physical therapy, and I got better pretty quickly. Now, that being said I have had pain in my cervical spine in the past but it was always doable.

After each surgery I never had neck problems like now it feels like I have whiplash again or something. Anyway, when I looked at my MRI it said I had some sort of 2 to 3 mm cyst back then but they never really did or said anything about it, and I didn't really pay much attention to it either. Now, I did last night and of course that made me a little unsettled because the BC took years the doctor said to get to the place it was, but I think surely that is just a coincidence.

I will get my MRI done after hearing what everyone has said. Those cortisone shots have not started helping yet or should I say it just feels very, very tender in my right shoulder and up to the base of my neck and up......BUT I will try, try, try to be patient with myself and it sure is hard to do.

Colateral damage....I swear!! I am at work today, so I am trying to think of my posture, and I will look side to side, take my ibuprofen and hopefully soon this will all settle down inside!
