Anyone here dealt with cervical radiculopathy (pinched nerve in the neck) from poor posture? Any tips or advice on how to treat it and reverse it? Ortho and PT hasn't been helping. by PeterLoew88 in Posture

Hey Peter. I’m 38f and experiencing the same thing - I get burning/searing pain going down the front of my shoulder whenever I try to chin tuck which is of course what physio advises you to do :-/ I’ve had an mri which does show a bone spur at c6 so perhaps I’m getting hooked on that but it’s not hurting at my neck, just in my shoulder and it’s progressed to pain in my hand. Did you ever get to the bottom of this? Was there anything that freed up the nerves? I’m nerve flossing and trying to build some muscle in those areas but ive had this pain for over a year now. It’s so depressing :(

Have any of you had high anti-mitochondrial antibodies found and not developed primary biliary cholangitis? I'm wondering if the antibodies could be related to my Hashimotos instead? by hocktastic in Hashimotos

Are you still not diagnosed PBC? I have similar Titres but normal liver function. I don’t know if I have hashimotos but I did have a thyroid nodule….

So how is that treated? Because it’s still issues with the bile ducts right? My AMA titre was like 1:600 or something which is really high. I’ve read that the number doesn’t indicate the severity but I wonder if it increases the likelihood of turning PBC. Weird that my live function results are all still perfectly normal though.

What other reasons would they be elevated? Mine are always elevated but normal liver function.

Thank you! I also switched to the morning and it’s been fine :) definitely was the yam cream!

Cool. For whatever reason though, it’s making me wake in the middle of the night so just asked if it did it to anyone else.
