Hi,
I will try and keep this as short as possible. About two month or so ago I started having pain in my right shoulder (muscle not joint). Well then the left one started to hurt. Now I am having headaches, bad headaches that wake me early morning. After being up for about twenty minutes it all stops
I have been to my PCP, had a CAT scan and MRI nothing much except some small bone spurs between the 5th and 6th and 6th and 7th vertebra two blood test show nothing abnormal in the muscle enzymes. Muscle relaxers helped a great deal but are not the answer in the long run. My PCP is stumped and thinks the next step is to see a neurologist. I am so freaking tired of this and going back and forth to doctors and hospitals that I balked at this suggestion.
Now the question. What do you think about me trying a chiropractor? My wife goes and thinks highly of hers. I have never been to one and am sceptical to say the least. But sinse muscle relaxers work it stands to reason that some stretching and realigning might be the ticket. Any thoughts would be appreciated.
Tom
