Pain
"Neck and upper back pain. Progressed to numbness in left pinky and ring finger. Then odd sensation painful but agitating pulses in medial arm. Pain level 7 (constants edge of tears). History of neck pain at c5/6. So I tried to treat at home with rest, naproxen, flexerol, and traction. Pain and symptoms got worse. Went to ER as I was dropping things in the kitchen. Don&#039;t like narcotics. Given toradol injection. WOW! Quick relief went from 7 to 2. Stiffness in neck reduced and pain in shoulder. Still numb in fingers but media arm better. Gave oral steroids and oral toradol. Pain is increasing again, but managed."
