I suffered from a trapped nerve in my neck for months. I went from doctor to doctor taking pain killers and muscles relaxers. Never fixed the problem just hid it. I took up yoga, and I kid you not, 3 yoga classes 2hrs per class shifted whatever it was bothering me and I've been fine since. Try it, only do as much as you can, you're not looking to tie your legs in a knot around your neck just a few stretches helps. yoga is the best and really helps to alleviate back pain.

Fingers crossed that the chiropractor (or the yoga) does the trick. I had never been a fan of chiropractors much, but then was thrown from a horse and really hurt my neck and shoulder. Nothing helped. The pain had become excrutiating and I got to the point where I couldn't do anything (read, sit, drive, work). Finally went to a very good chiropractor, who fixed it in one visit. Never even had to go back. All that suffering! For nothing! Here's hoping yours is fixed as easily. Wow, Daisy, I’m glad you’re up and moving about.

I'll have to try them on the kids. I gave birth to the first with backache too. I'll never understand why I went back for two more. You tend to forget the nasty bits till it's too late to turn back.

Apparently, they're like chiropracters only less painful!! Aw Daisy, sounds horrid :(

I wondered what they did about 'new' words - I thought it would be like the French with 'le weekend' and 'le football', but is it really true they have people make up Welsh words?

It tickles me when I get teased about Welsh taking other languages' words when I doubt that more than 40% or so of English could be traced back to Anglo Saxon origins. What's wrong with "ffilament" anyway?
