Haley,

I have the same symptoms for a different reason. My neck got so bad that even with a cervical collar, it hurt to keep my head up, lay down, pretty much all the time.

I tried a chiropractor and after 3 visits, the pain was almost gone.
I went a few times/week for a little while, then she weaned me onto once/month.

Does your chiropractor think that your lifting at work is part of the problem? If it is, you're facing a problem. I had to stop doing only a couple of things to help my neck.

Anyway, there is light at the end of the tunnel.

My prayers are coming your way.

He said all the lifting will slow the healing process, my neck is curving the wrong way the 7 disk down my neck which is hitting my central nerves that run down my arms into my hands and up into my head, which he said might be the sinus /allergy problems that i'm having also. it hurts when i sleep, when i pick up stuff, even when i pick up Micah, Thank God Mike's been helping me at home, he's been bathing Micah, it's hard for me to even get him out of the tub. I hate being like this, i'm so independent! this is killing me. I like doing everything on my own. I hate asking people for help.. its bad when i can't even take care of my own son.. just depressing... i just want a quick fix and i know that's not the answer to this problem...

say a prayer for me

I know what you are going through, but please, get another opinion, you need to see a Neurologist. I have so many problems with my neck and spine, herinated disks, fused disks, etc. I went to therapy for 6 months was 100% back to normal. I know it costs a lot of money, but I would do anything that I could to pay for it. Good luck and yes, we are praying for you.
