Hi Str,

Many thanks for your detailed response - most appreciated!

Sorry to hear about your struggle, although I'm glad to see you've found someone who has been able to help.

I'm certainly considering seeing a an Upper Cervical expert / neuro surgeon. The chiro I've been seeing suspects that I have a birth defect in my lower back (a very minute version of Spina Bifida from my understanding). This has essentially through my lower back, shoulder and neck out of line for the last 30 years.

I think I might be getting worse from the adjustments and have decided to have a break until I work out what to do next.

Your positive experience and words of encouragement are of a great help. Keeping my fingers crossed and your prayers for your appointment in November.

I'm based in Melbourne, Australia. Any thoughts on where I can find a neuro surgeon as good as yours?

God bless

Adey
