Wahine - this is TERRIFIC advice! Thanks so much. The sleeping is the hardest part - seems to hurt so much worse at night. I started on a muscle relaxant before bedtime last night, but ti didn't seem to help much. I might try the recliner if I still can't get any sleep. And now I know what to look for as I search for a PT.

I appreciate all of the kind words as well! Who knew a pain in the neck could be such a pain in the neck?
