Hi again Laura, I hate to join every thread and say me too...but yes I have this too. The throat thing and the heavy head, a lot of times it feels like my head is being pulled forward. I have a lot of other physical head stuff, also the tight neck and crackles in my neck too. Im sorry you have all the sx you do, I know you were not on as long as a lot of people, so that seems so unfair. This stuff is just awful, but I bet you start noticing things improving soon. Love, Colleen

I just experienced this for the very first time yesterday...so to read your post today is like a "wow" moment.  That's how I felt...my throat felt almost swollen and my head was so heavy...my neck felt tired and tight and there were spasms.  My husband said to just lay down on the bed/listen to music but even THEN I could still feel this heavy feeling in my neck.  It passed after an hour or so and then came back for a bit.  VERY strange and VERY unsettling feeling.  My husband always says "just think of it as new nerves awakening and it's your body healing".  I try to visualize that...it works sometimes...and sometimes not. 

 

Man what a ride this is, eh?!  My husband says this forum is full of VERY strong people.  Yay us! 

 

ALL the best,

Schatje
