Thanks. Just like the actual (full-blown, not just a cold) flu, and even severe Covid, for what it’s worth, to never want to experience anything like it ever-again, torticolis. For a good two or three hours straight it was excruciating. Like I said in another post, I could barely talk (since jaw and mouth in movement are both somewhat hinging on the activity of your neck) and was considering having the paramedics break in to come and get me because my keys were upstairs and I was downstairs and practically unable to stand up, let-alone go upstairs. Mind you, I was still given a two-hour-wait ETA before one of the call-handlers called off the ambulance and convinced me it was just a trapped nerve (which the out-of-hours GP more specifically labelled as torticolis).
