Hi Alfred,

I really feel for you, having to wait while in such pain. The best advise I can give is lay on ice every 20 mins. Ice will be your best friend until you can get to the dr. NO HEAT. Very important you stop all this typing, reading, any activity that engages your neck posture. It is making you worse. Get some relaxing classical music, like Mozart and rest as much as possible. There are neck braces at med supply stores and Amazon that you might want to order, they can provide relief. The pain can receed, but it does take time. Ask them to call in a steroid dose pack in the meantime to reduce inflammation quickly. Been here , so know the drill all to well. Prayers for you. XO
