All of a sudden a persistent pain in my left shoulder neck area radiating down has me worried.  I have never had a muscle or shoulder problem on my left.  The last couple of weeks it has felt like I strained my left shoulder.  I thought maybe I slept funny on it, or the freezing in place of the CT scan or PET scan left a muscle in that area knotted up.  I know all about what it could mean but it was more of a discomfort than pain, so I kept it in the back of my mind.  For the last few hours it's not discomfort anymore.  It hurts like hell, no position brings relief, moving, sitting, does not matter.  222's do not make a dent.  Multiple cookies is dulling it somewhat but not enough.  I will call The Dr. in the morning.
