The shoulder bone connected to the leg bone????

[sparkler1wantsaconservatory]

On Friday I had a dreadful pain on the right side of my neck, into my shoulder blade going down the top of my right arm. I couldn't look upwards as the pain would get worse. Kind of felt like a trapped nerve but not sure if that was what it was.
The shoulder pain has now eased but all day yesterday I have had a terrible cramping pain in my right calf muscle.
I haven't done anything to cause any of these problems. Haven't lifted anything heavy, I didn't wake up with the bad neck so didn't sleep awkwardly.
I'm just wondering if they can be linked in anyway with them both being on the right hand side.
I start work on Tuesday (after 7 years break) so need to get myself sorted out. I shall probably go and see the GP tomorrow if it hasn't gone.

has the pain gone in ur calf?

No I still have it today. I've been taking Ibuprofen non stop since Friday.

is your calf swollwn at all or red?

no

just feels painful and "tight"

LOL! This feels like one of those diagnosis doctor sites.

if you still ahve the pain tomorrow it would be worth going to the gp. i think the shoulder pain is coincidental but sometimes you get referred pain in shoulders for numerous reasons. hth

Got myself an appointment this morning at docs. Feel silly going but I have to get it checked so I'm all clear for work tomorrow.

how did u get on at the gps?

Couldn't put it down to anything in particular. Said it sounded like a muscle strain in my leg. Told me to continue with Ibuprofen and take some Paracetamol on top for pain. Seems to have eased a bit this evening.
Thanks for asking.
