Here I sit, in my high-back chair, with a bag of frozen peas on my upper back and neck. I screwed something up, probably when I was sleeping Saturday night / Sunday morning. The usual screw up, where one or other shoulder locks up, is either the upper rib and/or a cervical vertebrae (C2 or 3).
This time it's "the spine" (Chiro's words, didn't ask him to elaborate as I was too busy taking the first pain-free deep breath I'd had in two days).
I couldn't work Wednesday'; when it took twenty minutes for a ten minute (or less) shower, I knew I'd never survive the trip into the office, never mind sitting in a chair, working on the computer for seven hours. Called the Chiro as soon as the office opened, got in at nine-thirty and was back home by
ten-thirty with the frozen peas on me. Fifteen minutes on, off for sixty minutes. Repeat (and repeat, and repeat...). Saw Chiro again after work today (had to go in - month end, database work to be finished) and he managed to get another spot or two. Next appointment is Saturday, then not sure if I
can go a week or if it'll take another mid-week treatment.
