Hi. I'm new here. I've had Fibro for 18+ years. I had a cervical fusion done 5 years ago. Recently, in the last 6 months or so, I have had the pain again in the exact same place. I've had an MRI, CT and x-rays. Been to a neurosurgeon and orthopedic surgeon and both told me they can't help me and it's a part of my Fibro.
I have a high pain tolerance and been able to manage the Fibro paid mostly. I have broken bones as an adult and didn't cry but this neck pain makes me cry. I have a difficult time at work because I have a desk job and my neck hurts so bad.
So, who else has had this type of pain in the base of their neck? What did you do? A heating pad helps just a bit. Lidoderm patches don't touch the pain and I am at my wits end with this pain
