Hi David! Sorry you have to be here, but welcome! What is NSAID BID(clinoril) & trigger point injections? Have definitely become familiar with the lingo around here, but those are new ones! Being an anal retentive entrepenuer, I can relate with your anguish also. PT was very helpful for me & I hope it is for you as well this time around. My dry mouth is a real pain in the ass & so is the stiff neck. The tip of my tongue always hurts, but I seem to burn it way too often with hot coffee also, which probably doesn't help matters! I can eat most things as long as I have something to wash it down. I hope for a fast recovery for you & continued good health & no new recurrances.Spelling? You been through more than your share of crap with this disease! Your friend, Erik
