I'm 63 next month 6ft 15 stone. I have had a bad neck lately and aching between the shoulder blades. A lot people round here are complaining with exactly the same symtoms including my daughter, she's a senior1 physio and does acupunture for NHS patients. She swears by gloucosomine[ spelling]. I suffer from reactive athritus and have done for years. Some days I could hardly move, struggled on and usually not too bad by the third house. rest is not good for athritus, Keep moving. I did have an aching wrist but the wagtail appart from being an excellent bit of kit has cured it. Strange though, at least five people complaining of the neck and back ache thing. some stange things going around, I don't mean WC's either. DAI
