I had a cervical myleogram in Chicago July 5th, and since then I'm experiencing muscle spasms (?) or tightness in my shoulder and neck muscles (no headaches). Enough so, that it's sometimes difficult to sit upright without pain. Lying down, the tightness is still there, but those muscles will still not relax.

Is this to be expected, and would I still be experiencing these side effects nearly a week later?

This was my third myleogram, and I've never had any problems with it before, so this is new to me and getting to be a little worrisome. My cervical spine is the only part left that doesn't have major problems and I'd like to keep it that way!

Any input/personal experience is appreciated....Thank You!
