Went to Dr on Monday and had full blood tests. Neck flared up and energy levels plummeted Monday night and I got almost zero sleep because of the pain. Tuesday I managed to get out of bed by supporting my neck with my hands, gritting my teeth and crying.
I then spent most of Tuesday praying that either the physio or the chiro I’d called would have an appointment come available. They didn’t.
Last night wasn’t quite so bad as Monday but I was still hanging out for the chiro to fix my neck.
The chiro told me that he thought the torticollis was caused by an infection as the glands in my neck are swollen. That would also explain my lethargy. I’m wasn’t convinced.
He gave me an excellent neck and back massage and then adjusted my upper back and neck although the most sore spot refused to budge.
He told me to gargle aspirin and ice my neck. I forgot to buy aspirin but I’m icing my neck now.
My throat is starting to hurt now, and ive got a bit of a cough. I can feel the glands are getting hot and swollen so perhaps he’s correct.
