    Hun Hunni Yep all the time! It’s really draining too.

    Sometimes it’s shoulder blades then up through my neck. Other times it’s all down my side into my hip. Grrr!

    All part of the Peri journey. A few ibuprofen helps generally and nice hot bathes. I also bought a massager recently that really is great for the shoulder blade aches.

    Hope this helps and try not to worry xxxx

    Hi Jacqueline, yes I do. I can always press on my neck and shoulders and it is painful. And moving my neck sometimes hurts as well. It is awful and massaging it doesn't help either.
