Be over.
Been having pain from just below my right ear all the way down through my right shoulder into my right lower arm.
The pain finally got to me so I went to the Doctors, after doing a range of motion tests he tells me it looks like I have a herniated (sp) disk in my neckand put me on some muscle relaxants, pain meds and anti inflam meds plus some physio therapy.
If all is no better in a week or 2 I will have to go see a surgeon and have my neck fused. The Doc said I can all but kiss archery good bye if they have to do fusion as I wont be able to turn my head[:@]
I knew all those years of quick head turning to look at lovely young ladies was going to get me[8D]

My dad had a lower back fusion too so I know what you are going through. Hopefully they can relieve the pain with stretching and the muscle relaxants.
I'm hoping for the best for you.

Russ,
I hope things work out... That's a serious-enough situations I think I'd go get some different opinions as well before going under the knife if that could be the result.
