Hey Kim! Yes I'm out and happy to be out just dealing with some insomnia, stiffness and Sorness. The left part of my
scalp is numb and feels like pins and needles right now. Kinda ***** cus I wanna sleep but just can't. I keep getting pain too. My physical therapist came to see me today too and said I am healig well but essentially my range of motion isn't too good. Trying to keep up with my excercises butnit hurts. I am also struggling with hot flashes big time! Anyone else? I am
only 26.... Any advice anyone?

HI....sorry to pop in on a private thread, but wanted to see how Devin was doing.

I wanted to say with the hot flashes...do tell ur dr, it could be a thyroid thing.....or just from the release of pressure of ur pituitary gland.But do have them do labs to be sure it is nothing else. I went thru menopause early....I could not get neone to check what could have been causing the issues....12 yrs later I find it was my thyroid......no more kids at 50! But I was 36 when it started for me....not sure, but I was told my thyroid condition was chiari related...so I am thinking so was the menopause.

Oh and keep moving that neck : )
