Looks like we are suffering from the same thing basically. I too have instability on the left side between C7-T1 & that's what's causing my left side to go haywire and later right side of neck tries to compensate, causing nerve pain there as well, and shoulder issues.
What are they doing for cervical mobilization? I hope its slow and safe?

I have some further advice, which I may be presumptuous: if at all possible, try to think in terms of how to reduce and manage symptoms, rather than how to find the magical job that doesn't make things worse. A couple of years ago I too was spending a lot of time thinking about what job I could do. But since then, despite significant PT, chiropractic, and self-care, my symptoms have only gotten worse. The circle of jobs that I might be able to hold has gotten correspondingly smaller. So I am rapidly approaching a place where my options are: get better, or be on some type of long-term disability.

I realize this is pretty vague advice, and that if you knew how to get better, you probably wouldn't be here. My point is just that, in my case at least, I have not come up with a silver bullet job that won't risk harm to any of my symptoms.

@Akash

They do deep tissue and acupressure around the affected areas of upper back and massage of scelene and scm muscles to release tightness.
They said the imbalance might be because of tight muscle knots puling vertebra out of alignment.
Since the treatment my right side got much better and I can keep my hand above chest level more than 3 minutes without much issues.
Left hand needs more work since its causing more problem because of recent swelling above clavicle.

Hi Jnt2014,
Tnks for the advise. In India we don't get any disability benefit or any kind of social security we have.
So we have to find some means of earning by managing current situation. I have quit my successful IT job because it was flaring up my tos symptoms. Sometimes I think that job was good for my neck condition since we can take care of better ergonomics there but RSI issues popped up there.
Sometimes I think to go back with earlier job but I am in dilemma. What you do for your leaving?

I am currently teaching English abroad (meaning outside the United States, which is where I'm from). My job requires very little typing, but as I said before, I am still in bad pain most of the time. Even grading papers causes pain in my upper arms and neck. I came here hoping that the relatively low strain job would give my body time to recover, but instead I am still just keeping pain at bay.

Have you gotten into Dragon at all? It's the leading voice recognition software on the market. I complain about it a lot, but frankly without it I would no longer be able to use a computer. I basically just use it for dictation, but it's powerful software, with lots of features and commands. Technically minded people can make it work pretty well for them, especially if their jobs are repetitive in nature.

You may not need to buy Dragon, most computers have Voice Recognition built into the OS now.
Dragon may work better for certain specialized business applications.

A quality mic and/or headset and set the VR up in the settings and do some test reading so it can learn your voice..
