I take diclofenic for my neck and shoulder but never take on empty stomach or if you are prone to bad stomachs, like ulcers or stomach acid
Cheers HR!! gonna see how it goes before I try strong painkillers. If it is still sore next week I will see the doctor.....but I'm hoping it's a one off thingy.
Look Slinks, am hurting with ya' .. will not try and diagnose you or 'owt .. why don't you try that nurses help line or summat ... sorry , haven't the details, some one on here will tell you I'm sure .. just to get your mind at rest.
No good speculating .. gotta' get professional advice ... x

Just found it meself,KSH ... you brill .. do it now Slinks !! .. won't do any harm.
My daughter used to work on the GP unit at Queens Park, this overtook it, but the unit was excellent for out of hours problems. OK !! want to hear a report within the next hour ... x
Have you got one of those hot wheat packs? Emzie did something to her neck a few weeks ago and it helped but it did take a few days.
a bit of fiery jack should do the trick.....
SORRY GUYS........I didn't reply cos I went away on monday and only came home today.
Well monday was AGONY!! took painkillers like toffee's then cured it with plenty of beer.
Tuesday it was feeling a little better til kids dragged me into swimming baths on hols
Wednesday could move it a bit more freely.
Thursday much better.
Today, a heck of a lot better. My shoulder still gets twinges, but my neck is doing a heck of a lot better. Still can't figure out what I had done!! But I just hope it isn't a re-occurring thing because it was very very painful.
Thanks for your suggestions. And if it ever comes back I will seek medical help.

Change your name to Buster Douglas, that might help.
glad your feeling better slinks ..i went on wednesday for tests (think ive got a trapped nerve neck or somewhere) & was fitted with these devices which puts a small electric current up your arms & hands/fingers it was quite funny really seeing my hands/arms flying about ....me not in control didn't take long .waiting for results
OH hope everything goes well Mez.... It is bloody awful when your neck is sore, slightest movement nearly had me in tears
Glad you feeling better, shame happened before your holiday .. sod's law is evil, aint it ?
Think also, when you have got something like that, because you are so afraid of moving, tense up more and particularly with muscle pulls, etc, make them worse cause you can't relax .. you also strain other muscles too around the shoulders. You will be just better for going back to work then ..
