A Pain in the Neck

I fear that all of my diligent knitting has literally caused me to have a pain in the neck. Either that, or falling asleep on my couch in weird positions has finally caught up with me. Ow. Ow. Ow. Ow. OW!


Not even some Vicodin leftover from an emergency room visit this year seems to help. And I invariably wake up 4-6 hours after downing whatever painkillers I can grab, writhing in agony...migraine, neck cramps, etc.


And unlike most muscle aches, this has not gotten better after a few days. In fact, it has gotten worse. So I took today off work and will be going to see my doctor this afternoon. Hopefully, he can give me some relief. Or something. The ER is not somewhere I want to revisit.


The single upside to being unable to sleep from the pain was seeing this sunrise this morning, which was quite pretty. Something to console myself with, after being awake since 5ish.

  1. Yuck. I hope you feel better. bummed I can't make the TV party, but when you're not in pain anymore, we should hang and knit again.
