Oh! more suffering

 OMG the pain is so unbearable!  3 months ago in a near missed car accident whereby I was thrown forward and then backward with my head hitting the car back headrest.  After a few days my neck and head became swollen and the pain hit the maximum point.  Then my head could not move.  My pain killers could not do much, so had to get a doctor to come to give me a steroid jab.  The pain subside in a few days but my head could not move.  

From days to weeks and now months, I am now still not comfortable in a car as there is still pain as the car moves over bumps.  I have been wearing neck brace until now and when in the car I added a neck pillow.  Now I have to keep resting in bed more often so as to ease the pain.

Did a CT scan recently to see what's the problem with my neck and my overall cancer condition.  Mastoiditis.  Infection of the ear bone. Next is fracture of my neck bone.  Today is the last day I am on antibiotic for ear infection.  As for the fracture it is going to take some time to heal.  The oncologist suggested I go for radiation to stop the neck pain.  I'm considering it. 

The oncologist said my cancer is now under control.  However,  more ribs and other bones are damaged as shown in the scan.  I have to be very careful and if I notice any change in my system or other pain I have to contact my oncologist without delay.

I wonder who is it up there that do not like me.
