It has been two days since first shot. the burning in my arms and shoulders are gone yeah. mild numbness in hands and finger big improvement. problem is I have a headache that wont quit and very stiff neck all the way to my mid back. Over all I guess these symptoms are a little better because at least I can sleep now. Does anyone know if the headache will subside and how long. I am supposed to have another shot in five days and am afraid if the headache gets any worse I will be in the same pain boat as I have been just different pain.

thanks
