Your English, dear Monica, greatly exceeds my German (which stretches all the way from danke to Gesundheit). It is lovely, expressive, clear.

I found this Forum several weeks ago & know exactly what you mean about it felling so good not to be alone. That's one very special thing about the people here: They will let you come & be here with them no matter how you feel. You can ask questions, hang out & just listen, throw a fit out of frustration, whatever. People here are always here for you.

In your earlier post, you said: "One thing that is very strange - and maybe you know what this can be - is that I feel quite fine when being on the physio's treatment couch (?) but as soon as I stand up after the treatment almost instantly the muscles in the neck and shoulder tighten up and cramp and 'my' pain comes in its usual waves. The physio does not know what this is and neither do I."

Just a thought: Maybe you are standing up too soon.

When I have deep-muscle massage (which can break up blockages in energy flow) or acupuncture (which channels energy flow), I will often feel stabbing pain, nausea, &/or blackouts if I don't give my body at least 5 mins (sometimes I need as much as 20) to regulate or adjust to this new energy pattern. I don't know whether there are any parallels with your treatments, but you might give this a try if you are getting up right away.

Best wishes.
