Hi pls read, I've no idea what to do and I'm in a desperate situation, really alone in my condition and any help or advice or feedback whatsoever will be much appreciated!
I live in Singapore and started to have spasms of my neck a year back when I started a desk based job, went to the doc and got a hospital appointment which took ages (originally, it was scheduled for within 2 weeks but kept being postponed to3 months later) so to gain some relief I went to the Chiropractor. The Chiro experience was in general a bad one, but the good thing that came out of it is I found I have a hemivertebra (congential) that is, a half formed vertebra at T3. I have no idea how many degrees it is as I have never gone to the Chiro again because of bad experiences.
The spinal surgeon wasn't very helpful and even went so far to suggest that I may have epilepsy. I had gone to see him in March of 2010 and I have another appointment with him but that's on the 21st of Jan 2011!!
Anyway I also got an MRI done within this time and then had an appointment with the neurologist who said my spasms seemed to be torticollis/cervical dystonia (contraction/shortening of neck muscles). She prescribed muscle relaxants and/or botox. I decided not to go in for botox
MY QUESTIONS:
1) What should I know about scoliosis? E.g, what are the long term effects of it, what can I do to manage it? I read somewhere that it causes a reduce of dopamine which further aggravates the scoliosis, is this true?
2) I think my priority would be to address my spinal issue rather than my torticollis. Would this be right?
Any other questions/feedback appreciated. Thanks a tonne
