Hi all I'm at my wits end doctor took me down from maxitram and on till co codomal 15/500 most days I struggle but this evening I have hurt my neck top of spine. I can't turn my head, cough or sneeze everything makes it hurt. I've taking my meds but it's killing me. So I go to a&e or am I jumpin the gun?

      Thanks kaz I'm freakin out. Went down to the livingroom (I live with parents I'm 24) and my mummy was cryin. She said she was so worried but that's by the by. I'll try the 111 number in Belfas we tend just to use the a&e as it wouldn't as high in demand as I've seen in England. Thank u so so much x

      Fibro throws so many different symptoms at us, its hard to know when its fibro or something else going on. Its always best to speak to gp if unsure about anything, its best to be safe than sorry. Hope your neck has eased hot water bottle will help with pain paracetamol also. Take care hope you have a good weekend gentle hug

    Can you put a warm hot waterbottle on your pillow and lie with it against your neck. It sounds like you've got a spasm In your neck. Sometimes called a wry neck, incredibly painful but not dangerous. Hope you feel better soon.
