He was the same Dr. that checked for my carpal tunnel...very nice, but weird..lol. He asked me lots of questions, manipulated my neck, shoulder and arm and even made me walk. For a fat girl that is so embarassing. From all that I told him and from his examination he's pretty sure it's a pinched nerve in my neck....caused from picking Mom up off the floor.
Since it was so close to the holiday I will have to wait until next week...he is scheduling an MRI and then physical therapy. He also gave me a prescription for pain killers. I'm not having them filled unless I just can't stand it any longer. So far the Advil at least helps me get to sleep and when it does get horribly bad during the day...I take a Loritab.
He said it won't heal fast, but believes it will be fine. We'll know more after the MRI.
