Saw the ENT yesterday and I will be having PT with massage for the stiff neck. We are also doing an esophogram 3/9. She also gave me script for the Xanax to help relax the neck and go to sleep at night. I slept like a rock last night.

I am so grateful to all of you for the guidance so that I know how to be my own advocate. Thank you.

Patty
