my shoulder...

last night something weird happened..

my back was hurting as i'd been sat hunched over a bit before bed..so i went to bed and woke up half an hour later in extreme agony. My shoulder hurt so much and it was a horrible sickly sort of pain that i've never felt before - i was so close to throwing up/passing out and it brought me to tears it hurt that much. I got no sleep because of it - i had paracetemol and put a hot water bottle on it but nothing helped. i finally fell asleep at 7am and it's ok today but it feels like it might go again - any ideas what it is?!

I think i've had that before, i thought i was dying lol! But after a day or two it was back to normal but as you said, i still had that feeling that something was wrong with it for a bit. I wouldn't worry, it was probably the way you laid on it!

if there is still a niggling pain or you are worried, surely you should go the doctors.

I say go to the doctors, they should give you some stronger painkillers and possibly cream too,

I've had a bad shoulder for months, not quite as bad as ures sounds! But enough to keep me awake, and the doctor sorted me straight away!
try ibuprofen instead its anti inflammatory works better than paracetamol

Probably sleeping in an awkward position?

Most likely...
