Mark, i think you are on to something here. I am noticing that when I do exert myself, that night, I have disturbed sleep and wake up with slight neck pains.

My question to you is how long you've been dealing with this? It's been over two years now, with zero improvement. I have come to peace that I will most likely never be able to exercise again without feeling ill. But it would be nice if there was some type of way, to at least increase my threshold for exercise over the years. In other words, will this get better? Is there anything you can do to improve it? i've heard of people getting neck surgeries. Any thoughts on that?

The common PCS neck injury is very subtle and only causes problems when specific circumstances happen.

My solution was to figure out my own therapy or change in behavior. I had to learn to not look side to side with my neck only. I had to turn my shoulders too. This was very important when I was scanning the backyard looking for my dogs' waste.

My neck is much more stable now that it was but it creaks like an old wooden floor.
