I guess this is best way to describe it. Two weeks ago, while being driven home by access-a-ride, I can't drive anymore, the driver suddenly stepped on the brake, and my head snapped forward, backward, and instantly felt a sharp pain in my left neck, where I had several surgeries, no neck muscle, and a flap. I didn't think much of it, but was in slight pain. Later that night it progressively got worse, could not tun my head at all or lift my head off the pillow without assistance of my hand. I happened to have an ENT appointment the following morning, and he immediately asked why is my head was tilted, and shoulder slumped, which he said wasn't like that before, and had me lift my arms, which is significantly different in raising. Anyway, we got caught up in other issues, blood, kidney levels, scans, rescan and need to go to my doctor right away, we sort of got off tract of my neck.

Anyway, my neck is still bothering me, have pain, and headaches. I had no major problems before, until now and ironic I went through three neck dissections, several treatments, only to be injured for an unwise move. I kind of learned my lesson for not wearing a seatbelt, not required in the back seat, and trying to put my jacket on while driving with my hands behind my back. Sometimes you think you are invincible lol. I think I"ll act more safer in the future.

Well, maybe you should check back with the doctor about the whiplash and not get sidetracked on all the other issues. If you have to, write everything down, two copies and give one to the doctor. When I've had questions for the doctor, I've even sent my questions by fax the day before so he could prepare good answers. Hope things get better for you. And buckle up your seatbelt!

I was hospitalized right after for 5 days, had emergency kidney stone laser surgery, stent put in, blood transfusions, so that took presidence, unfortionately. Actually, you have no energy, thought when blood is low. Pretty much like a walking zombie, still am. I have a dr visits on Thursday. Blood is still low, I can feel it, but received no phone call from my blood work on Friday. so I guess it's good enough for now lol, plus my mother fell last night, and is in the hospital. It's always something. Thanks.

You need to add another line to your Signature!

Lol. I hope not.

No, I mean for the Whiplash.

I ran out of characters to add lol.

Eggh... paul... gobbledy gook! ;o) sorry about the lashing... best make sure you didn't break anything, with all the rads and chemo your bones are probably quite fragile.

Thanks. Good idea. I'm good at giving out advise, but rarely for myself lol.
