LOL!

It scared the heck out of me initially too. I had no idea what was happening and afraid to bend my head

Even though it's permanent I find my L'Hermittes more annoying than anything. I don't have pain from it and never have. I don't get electrical shocks just the vibrations/buzzing.

For those that don't know: L'Hermittes is caused by a lesion(s) on the cervical spine. L'Hermittes is not exclusive to MS and has other causes.
