Question:
Hey guys,
I had slept on my neck funny two nights ago and woke up yesterday with my neck quite stiff and painful. I still went to work and ended up coming home early from a three hour shift because I wasn't able to do much of anything after 2 1/2 hours. I tried heat, tried alternating heat and cold, went back to heat, had someone massage it to get some of the tension out, I keep stretching it gently, even though it kills.
Anyways, I'm just asking for prayer that I could relax enough that the muscles could untense and I'd be able to get movement back.
Thanks

Answer:

Answer:
Thanks guys, I really appreciate it. I've gotten a fair bit of mobility back today, it still hurts a fair bit, but no where near how it was, which is a good thing, as I have to work tomorrow.
Answer:
How is your neck, Katie?
Answer:
It's better, the muscle relaxants are working for me and aren't messing with my brain too badly. I"ve got full mobility again, now I just need to be careful that I don't do anything stupid (like sleep on it funny or not take care of myself).
Thanks for praying guys. THe really weird thing is that a co-worker came in on Friday with a similar problem just on the other side, and one of my friends as well. Either I'm contagious, or else it was maybe a virus? Thank God it's better now.
Answer:
contagious back pain? that's a new one for me. Glad to hear your feeling better.
