Hi @Baglady, welcome to the online community
You are recently diagnosed with osteoarthritis in your neck and shoulder. Well, you have come to the right place . We are here to support you and hope that you will join in with the many discussions and activities on offer on the community. I attach some links about neck and shoulder pain and mindfulness which many members find helpful.
When we were first diagnosed many of us experienced feeling a bit down so don't feel on your own . It takes time to adjust to life with arthritis and amazingly can lead us to new experiences and new friends so I hope now that you have made the first step by making your first post you will join us again soon.
Take care
Poppyjane
