Depressed

Have you ever been in so much pain that you can't even function to put on your own clothes?

Or to the point that you break down crying cause it's affecting your ability to work?

Well I am currently suffering with a problem in my neck, right shoulder and arm. It all started Wednesday last week on the 20th. I woke up totally fine, no pain, went to grab something from the closet overhead and BAM! Neck spams from HELL!

Whatever, I've dealt with this before, some stretching, heat, massage from the boyfriend, and some Advil. Usually my pains go away in 2-3 days. Not this time.

On Thursday 21st I had 15 clients at work. I think I forgot to mention what I do for a living. I massage people. Professionally of course. I'm fully licensed and practicing for 3 years now. Anyways!

10 clients in and I'm DYING! So I seek out a fellow MT to help me. I find a rehab clinic upstairs in the same building that is willing to take me in for a 30 min treatment. She helps, I get some relief, but it doesn't last long seeing as I still had 5 treatments to do.

After work, I went home, took a hot shower, stretched, and popped and Advil then went to bed.

When I woke up in the morning I was a disaster! I was having sharp shooting pain in my eye, visual disturbances, and tingling in my arm. Okay? I till had to face work for the rest of the weekend. Great!

Friday, Saturday, and Sunday go by and it's just getting worse. The pain is now catching my arm!

Monday (yesterday) rolls around and still working! I work Mondays and Wednesdays at a Chiropractic clinic uptown. After 2 treatments I couldn't take it anymore. I was in tears! I approached the Chriopractor and asked him for help. Let me start off by saying Chiropractors scare me. I've never been adjusted before and never wanted to be. But I was desperate!

So he did what any Chiro does, he cracked my neck. Apparently, according to him I have a pinched nerve and I had a rib that was popped out :/ ... Umm okay?
He also made me wear a cervical spine decompressor which didn't really help. I actually found that it caused me more pain.

Today it is Tuesday and YES I am working! I'm in so much pain that I'm considering taking work off for the rest of the week. My arms are gone, no strength at all, shoulder and neck are shot to shit. (Excuse me French) but I can't help but be irritable and cranky!

I booked another massage at 4 pm between clients. I know there no point but I'll take anything at this point.

Heal me please! Somebody! *tear*
