Normally in the neck and shoulders,its just another term for a type of arthritis,these pains can be caused also by tension.iF IT IS,NT TENSION ,THEN YOU WILL HAVE IT FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIFE.Now you know why a lot of elderly people have trouble moving when they are in a lot of pain.Do without the painkillers as long as you can ,they can be addictive,some use alcohol to numb the pain ,but alcohol destroys.Welcome to the club RICHARD H,and good luck for the future.

First of all I’m sorry to hear this. Has your doctor discussed medications with you? That’s just it, it will depend day to day on how you feel. There are medications to help ease the pain, also anit-depressants. I found a website that might interest you. Just take it day by day and do what your body will allow you. Please take care of yourself.

My neighbor woman has it and when storm fronts move in, it bothers her a great deal more. As far as I know, she’s not undergoing pain management and that has affected her outlook on life.
She seems to be able to whatever she wants as far as daily chores, driving but without pain management her mood can swing from pleasant to nasty.
Hope you follow your doctor’s advice. Many women with this seek pain management to live with this illness.

generally you will suffer with tireness and there has been occasions that I just need to lie down for 20 min. All the pressure points will hurt. Other way of decribing it is when you are going up the stairs, it feels like you have bricks in your shoes. Your memory may not be good and you will have poor concentration. But hey, it is not all bad, it was sympton free for two years. I found that changing my diet has helped loads. Cut out coffee and red meat, but try and have a glass of red wine per day. limiting dairy also helps.
Good luck try sitting in a hot shower, damp heat will ease the aching.
