painful

the pain around my neck has kinda subsided, but the throbbing headache still lingers. in fact, whenever i turn my neck at a certain angle, the pain shoots to my head. right side, somewhere inside. just cannot pinpoint exactly where. fearing the possibility that it might be a stroke, i called kl this morning. and i was relieved when he told me that based on my description, it sounded more like the worsening of my cervical spondylosis instead. have had this problem since 1999 and based on the x-ray i took last year, it was so obvious that my neck had degenerated so much more (compared to my x-ray in 1999).

it was a weird feeling - on one hand, glad that my headache was not likely due to an impending stroke, yet, couldn't help it but felt worried that my cervical spondylosis has worsened... i got me wondering if i need an operation... sighs. for now, i'll have to endure the headache. hopefully, the coming mri on 9 feb will give me some clarity as to how bad the problem is.
