Marjorie, BIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIG, warm, full-of-love HUGGLE atcha!! Now for the "pain in the neck...." When driving, make sure your head and neck aren't tilted backwards, even slightly, while driving...tilt your chin (and the rest of your face) slightly downward while driving/. If you have trouble seeing over the steering wheel with that slight tilt, don't move your head - move your EYES to see over the wheel. When you get home rest for a few minutes with an ice pack on your neck. GOOD LUCK!!! The above info comes to you courtesy of Dr. Lee Kudrow (yup- he's Lisa Kudrow's dad), who successfully treated me for migraine control; about 25 years ago.... (and it worked wonders!). Sending love your way... Barb Mallut [log in to unmask] -----Original Message----- From: Marjorie L.

I can no longer turn my head to the left but about 05º and to the right about 20º. Which makes driving very dangerous, and since my husband can no longer drive, its up to me. We won't even discuss the headaches this has caused. Believe it or not, magnets don't do a thing to my neck, just my knee and elbow. The 83 year old lady, in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida, who was hit by another car,and sent on a flying leap off I-595 the other night? I'm sure everyone in the world has heard about her by now, that is less than 5 road miles , about 2.5 miles as the crow flies, from my house. That is the route I had to take to the library twice daily. I-595 was at the top of my list of reasons to retire this year. I no longer felt safe driving to or from work, and that was before this neck problem too. All of my good cyber support friend, please keep your fingers crossed for me. just me, Marjorie At 12:17 PM 08/17/2000 -0700, you wrote: >Paul Ayers, you truly do get the oh so varied facets of this great group >Even though some of US do from time to time lash out, we really are a >very caring group.
