Pistol Shooting

Yesterday I went shooting pistols with my brother.  I took advil before I left and did pretty good as far as the pain.  I did not have to do a lot of walking so I did not take my cane in with me.  I felt pretty good when I got home and did not have to take anything stronger than the advil I took earlier. Then I was woken up during the night with incredible pain in and around my ear and down my neck.  I thought I had an ear infection.  It was that type of pain.  I saw the Dr. at the Sick call this morning and she told me my ears were clear.  She said it sounded as if a muscle pulled in my neck and up into and around my ear.  I know weird.  Lesson learned. always stretch out the neck before shooting.Shooting is still one of the sports I can still do, and I really enjoy it.  I have started to notice that my arms and shoulders get tired faster than they used to when I shoot.
