@A MyFibroTeam Member Yes, I've been getting neck pain since I was in my 30's & many times coupled with a bad headache. I've had shoulder pain for years now too, along with back pain. It all comes & goes as it pleases. I think heat helps, like those microwaveable pads that fit around your neck, and the rectangular microwave heating pads are great for the back. God bless. πŸ˜™

Yes, Bursitis in both shoulders, I get Cortisol shots every 4 months, that usually help, well for a few months...I take pain meds. and a muscle relaxer for all my body pain, and an Arnica Montana ( natural pain reliever gel) product called Arnicare from my local dept. store or you can get it at any drug store. and I rub it into my shoulders, elbows, and hands, this also helps when the Cortisol shots wear out. Getting the shots next week, can't wait...it's putting a damper on my sewing time...ha, ha... hope you find some relief.

Yes i have arthritis in both, the constant pain was always there before and after my diagnosis. I tried everything, one pillow or two?, no pillow, sleeping a certain way, adjusted my sitting position etc nothing worked. Its just another constant in the life of a fibro sufferer.

Doctor said, this is one of the fibromyalgia tender points. I use muscle relaxer, and or cannabis oil, I use gummy bears, or cannabis water.
