[QUOTE="Runnerman, post: 217134, member: 41640"] Kind of a side note to this. At the start of the pandemic, I slept funky on my pillow one night and woke up with a crick in my neck. Where I couldn‘t turn my head to one side. Over a few days that progressed to severe pain on the outside of my right shoulder with some numbness and tingling in my fingers. Doctor did an x-ray and they noted disc degeneration in my c5-c7. Scheduled an MRI that didn’t show any nerve impingement. Meantime, seeing a PT for a lower leg issue, he checked my shoulder and based on my limited range of motion and pain, he felt I had a torn rotator cuff. Given some time (a couple of months) and ibuprofen it eventually got better although it was excruciating at times. Couldn’t sleep well. Heating pads and hot baths helped. The gabapentin the doctor prescribed for nerve pain was useless but he wouldn’t prescribe anything else. Anyway, in my case it didn’t seem to be nerve impingement but I sure don’t want to go through that again. [/QUOTE]
