Texty's Back - Plain and Simple

Sorry to hear that Carol - I hope the Pilates works for you. Do you know the exact injuries you have? ie bulging discs or anything? I wouldnt wish back pain on anyone its so debilitating. I just hope this Dr knows what hes talking about lol
 
The problem is with my neck. Since the fall the muscles keep going into spasm and trapping the nerve that goes through a tiny hole in the vertabrae which causes pain in my neck and tingling down my arms. I have exercises from the physio to stretch it and am on permanent pain killers - it is not helped by being sat at a desk all day. I just have to try to move as often as I can and also work have supplied me with a chair which supports higher up my back which has helped a lot.
 
Sounds so very much like mine only mine is my back on the right side not my neck. It just "locks" spasms and its agony. I cant stand or walk for too long, the exercises from the physio arent helping, Ive got Naproxen to take which are anti inflammatorys. Ive had a mini workplace assessment and got a curved desk and a writing slope. I have someone coming to see me on the 30th after my hols, about a new chair which will support my back.
 
I'm on Naproxen as well. Take it along with Co-codamol and when it was really bad last year i was also on Tramadol but that was only short term. Unfortunately at work we have to hot desk so I just trundle my chair around from desk to desk. LOL.
