Feeling bad, please read and reply.

In the middle of my pregnancy, 6-7 months ago, I developed some kind of tightness, stiffness and achiness in my neck. It started on the left side. I attributed it to the pregnancy weight gain and wrote it off even though its constant and annoying. There is no visible difference in my neck just by looking. But I gave birth 3 months ago and I have felt very unwell since then. My neck is still tight and achy but its on both sides now and I have also developed muscle pain/weakness, joint stiffness and pain and unsteadiness. My balance is off, I feel dizzy constantly. There is a pressure-like feeling in the base of my head and around my nose and forehead. I am shaky a lot. My vision is strange too and sometimes I have trouble concentrating and things seem surreal. I am getting really scared and anxious. My symptoms are severe enough to keep me from doing everyday things. I am miserable always. Please tell me if you have experienced this and what it could be. I am so scared.

The neck pain and muscular stiffness is favourite common and can be caused by stress or anxiety, or sometimes vital. Massage, especially shiatsu can help a great deal - try a couple of sessions of that at your local massage therapist.  The bad feelings you're experience are very common after pregnancy,  try to focus on other things, and talk about it with your local nurse or clinic.
