Hi all.  I've spent the last month reducing 4 different pain meds and patch to just Paracetamol a couple of times a day.  I still have a dull pain in the treated area, tongue stretch and throat but not significant.  Is this normal considering the withdrawal of the meds.  Thank you

  • Hi Carran,

    Sorry for the slow response. So good to get off the meds once you can isn't it? . I'm only a few months further along the path from you and still ache at times. My neck feels a bit bruised, but not all the time. I can tell if I forget my exercises. Swallowing fine just achy stiffness. Tongue stretches more comfortable now, so long as I do them daily. 

    Hope everything else coming on well for you.
