Pinched Nerve on my neck ... pain on biceps

After several sessions of acupressure with acupuncture, the therapist has convinced me that it is a pinched nerve on my neck. Anyway, the pain decreased tremendously after two sessions. However, due to a strain whilst trying to hold my 75kg friend when she was drunk, the pain on my biceps was back to square one. What makes it worse was sleeping on my left side resting on my biceps.

On the third session, I suggested that my biceps be treated without oral herbal remedy to see if it makes any difference but oh no .. it did not get better at all.

Being adamant on getting relief through TCM without painkillers or other inflammatories, I am quite sure of improvements in a month maximum. I have placed a rim of A4 paper to raise the height of my computer screen and replaced the bifocal lens with the normal presbyopic lens to avoid raising my neck repeatedly. It felt better.

Today, I did my fourth session of acupressure, manipulation and acupuncture on  my neck and shoulder with herbal hot pads and take home herbal medication. Let's see how it goes the week ahead.

OMG!  My damages each week S$63. How long more and how much more money am I going to spend on this?

My Tinnitus was gone for 3 seconds!

Last Friday morning, as I was walking out of the MRT (Mass Rapid Transit) along the underpass, I suddenly realized the silence and serenity. Then I paused ... yes! No more sizzling and ringing at the back of my head! However, this silence was shortlived. The sizzling sound started again after 3 seconds of silence.

I wonder when will this noise at the back of my head be gone. As of today, I am hearing sizzling sounds on the left side and the high pitch ringing on the right side. The only time I experience silence is when I am underwater ... scuba diving. The only time I could feel the serenity and peace while exploring and enjoying the amazing beauty beneath the waves.

The thing I hate most is the sound is not only significant when it's quiet but it is still obvious with reasonable noise around. That makes my world noisier in crowded places such as the malls and markets. My office is not excluded especially on Mondays and Fridays.

I just loved to remain in my room with only one noise ... the music from my stereo set.

Last but not least, I will continue to sincerely pray for more silence in my head.  I would not ask for more but simply just ... one sound at a time.

God, please grant me serenity and silence in places where there more than one type of noise.
Amen.
