occipital nerve pain

I have had two neck surgeries in the past two months.  The first surgery was to repair two discs, which were herniated.  The herniation had caused my right shoulder to freeze and I could not turn my head to the right.  Almost immediately after the surgery I had some sever head pain

I am currently doing research for an upcoming book which deals with the side effects and withdrawals people have experienced from Effexor XR and other (like) anti-depressants. I am interested in receiving any information current or former users would like to share concerning their experiences with these drugs. Please email me @:

and thanks!

I think you want to ask this question to the neurology forum, they are the ones who have the experience to answer this question.  I am a psychiatrist, and we don't see these kind of problems.

I am so sorry to hear of your pain. I had a crushed disc in my lower back a couple of years ago and was headed for back surgery because I was just getting worse and worse.
One night, I ran across one of those healing shows that they have on television. I prayed and prayed to Jesus Christ like never before. I don't know why it never occurred to me before to try this, but I didn't. I could only crawl and lay down, that's how bad my injury was and getting worse.
This went on for three months.
The next morning, after I had prayed, I was crawling towards the door and I noticed that I felt different somehow than I had been feeling. I sort of tried to stand up a little, and then a little more. I could actually sort of hobble out of the door. I continued to get better every day from that day on.
Anyone who has had a back injury knows that the back pain isn't the only problem. You just feel ill all of the time no mater what you are doing. I knew the minute I crawled into that doorway that something was different, different than I had felt in three months.
I know that I was healed the night that I prayed for it.
I am 53 years old and fat right now, and I can lift anything I want too with no problem at all. I have never had any problems since that night.
PRAY! The spiritual world really does exist and is full of people wanting to help us. I think you have to ask for it though. In any event, what could it hurt. PRAY!
