Kathy, I keep thinking about your neck. I know this is not scientific, but maybe you'd be willing to give it a try....
According to both Oldefashioned Medical Wisdom and also Sympathetic Magic, the thing to do for your neck's healing would be soup made of neck bones, preferably ox but regular old cow will do...Make a broth with bones simmered all day, add salt, pepper, lots of garlic and onions, and red wine. I'd add some sage, personally. Red wine and marrow bones are both mentioned in many places for healing broken bones and sword wounds. Have a bowl twice a day. Should keep in the fridge for up to a week. Sarajane
