Right so I'm going to try and explain best I can.
I started with a weird niggle pain in my upper back almost on my upper back near my shoulder blade on the right hand side. It was more annoying to begin with.
Last week It intensified and spread and its settled in my right armpit right where my breast and arm meet. It hurts to touch it. When i lightly press the pain throbs. Lifting arm up and putting arm forward make it hurt Thru the course of the day it gets worse to an almost constant ache which gets worse when stood up and walking. It also spreads up my back to my neck and it hurts to put my head down. It also hurts in my collarbone to put my head down.
I went to the gp last week who prescribed amitriplyine which short of making me very sleepy has done nothing. I work a physical job and cannot afford to take time off work as we only get SSP and that won't even cover half our outgoings. I'm taking a lot of painkillers which aren't even touching it. I've been recommended codeine and paracetamol combined tablets 4 times a day and ibrupofoen 400mg 3 times a day. All of which I'm taking but to no avail.
I'm so miserable. Lying down helps. But getting up hurts. I feel like I've aged overnight. I'm not even 30!
When I stand up there's so much pressure on my shoulders and neck. I'm a healthy weight. Eat a healthy diet.
I had some bloods done on a different matter and they came back normal except for abnormal liver function and to have repeat bloods done which I'm having at the end kf the month. Only mentioning in case it's related. I'm going to push for a gp appointment next month.
Any help please
