I have essential tremor and it is progressively getting worse. I am sympathetic toward this guy whose tremor is worse than my own. He seems like a great guy. It is difficult to live with tremor because people judge you or they avoid getting close to you. As difficult as the simplest task has become, like putting on pierced earrings, what bothers me most is I feel insecure around people. I try now to avoid social events. I wonder if they think I am an alcoholic with the DTS or because I delight in gardening, I wonder if neighbors think I expose myself to toxic substances ,insecticides, herbicides etc. I have become paranoid. I find it humiliating.
I feel so badly for your suffering. Our reason for posting these case history videos it to give sufferers HOPE. This man was diagnosed as "cervical dystonia" and was recommended brain surgery to implant a stimulator. Yet correcting his jaw / neck position made great improvements in his symptoms. So it proves that the root cause was poor jaw / neck mis-aligment was the root cause since that was the only change we made
What is "Essential Tremor"? That means they don't know WHAT is the root cause of that tremor, right? Could it be that the root cause of those tremors is poor jaw / neck alignment such as it was for Mike?
Olá, também tenho distonia cervical e me sinto como você. Sou do Brasil, e aqui, o atendimento pra saúde demora bastante, embora tenhamos excelentes profissionais, a questão da demora no atendimento público é muita, o que prolonga o sofrimento, visto que estou sem tratamento devido a quase 2 anos. O que vem me ajudando é a tratar a questão psicológica para enfrentar a situação. Também me isolei de vida social. Mas vamos levando. Desejo que você se recupere!
I was diagnosed with Tardive dyskinesia a couple weeks ago. But my symptoms resemble this man's struggle quite closely. Especially the thing he said about feeling like an ice pick in his neck. It's a miserable way to live, and this poor guys had it for 14 years. I feel for him.
I once had these symptoms for two days due to a medication I foolishly took called haldol. For me benadryl took the symptoms away but I can tell you as someone without this condition, living with it for a mere two days had my mind thinking about suicide. I can not stress enough how strong you guys are to deal with this day after day
Jordan M: I have no idea what your background or expertise is to suggest this case of Cervical Dystonia is due to anxiety. It is demeaning to the person that is suffering from this condition. CD is real. It is due to uncontrolled firing of the nerves that control the muscles the move the head....which in my experience...is due to an imbalance of the muscles that control the jaw / neck area.
I have incurable cervical dystonia. Thank you for saying CD is caused by anxiety what absolute rubbish. CD causes social anxiety because people like me feel so conscious of our condition. I have friends but I rarely go out as I have been refused admission to bars/clubs as people on the door assume I must be drunk. Honestly this is what has happened to me on several occasions.

I was just diagnosed and feel alone:( I started getting random head jerks and the first 2 months of Botox seemed to work. Then the third time it only lasted 1 1/2 months. I’m so sorry your are going through this. Will this happen to me as well? Or is everyone different? How does this process?
Hi Prabu I am a classical guitarist with FHD I am giving a seminar in two weeks time at a guitar festival and one of my Keynote headings is Common Types of Dystonia, I was wondering if i could use this video to demonstrate Cervical Dystonia with yours and Mikes permission. Kind Regards Sean
Hello Sean: You have my permission to use the video in your address. My whole purpose in posting this is to inform people...which is also what you are doing. More power to you! People need to know that Physiologic Neuromuscular Dentistry (PNMD) may offer a solution, rather than simply paralyzing muscles with Botox which does not offer a long term solution in many cases. Mike, I understand, is a quite a guitar legend in the SFO bay area. He has given me written permission which is why I was able to post this on TH-cam & make it accessible to "public".
have a question, dystonia is only in the neck or it can include another muscle? because in my case I feel a contraction in the back of my neck that makes me shake my head and crackle my neck every time I move it, it sounds very ugly.
Good question! Yes, it can involve other muscles. Our muscles do not work in isolation. Normally they work in pairs or groups of agonists (work together) and antagonists (work against) to effect movements that are smooth and purposeful. In dystonia (poor - tonus) this is not the case. My treatment approach is to diagnose the root structural cause for which the muscles are compensating - in this case with movement. Almost always it is the poor structural alignment of the jaw and neck. Where the teeth happen to come together is not the same as where the jaw and neck would ideally align. Once that structural deficit is made up - temporarily at first with fixed PNM orthotic- the muscles no longer have the need to compensate. This usually leads to relief of symptoms as well. Does that make sense?
@@ramancentertmj ok in my case I present a contraction in my neck that causes the head shaking but the most unusual thing is not the head shaking which is partly frustrating but the sound it causes me is something strange because sometimes it is a super rare cracking in the neck When I move my head it sounds very ugly that is also cervical dystonia or rather affects the brain more, would it be another case? Thanks for answering, I really appreciate it.
I have had cervical dystonia for many years. I am curious why you will get the shakes while lying down ? I would recommend getting a second opinion. Botox works great for me. I am sorry to see you suffer through this. Through diet , excersize, I put myself through the challenge of re-aligning my brain with neuroplasticity. ?? Any thoughts ?
It is a good idea to have a thorough medical workup to rule out tumors and other causes. But if they diagnose the condition as CD, most likely it will be Botox injections every 3 months FOREVER with increasing doses to "manage" the symptoms. You may want to find an experienced and competent NM dentist to diagnose the underlying CAUSE of the movement and correct that. That is what we did for Mike and many others. All the best to you.

Is there a chance to see a recent follow up video? Also does anyone know if there have been any experiments with medical marihuana to help cervical distonia patients? Not necessarily smokin it but in any form, oils, injections, eating ect? I am under the impression that all offical research of the benifits of medical marihuana are banned but I'm sure some people have tried it for this condition.
This patient got better & so have not been back from California where he lives. I have no information on medical marijuana for CD. Even if it "works" how is it better than prescription medications that just mask the symptoms for a few hours? I like the idea of actually correcting any structural problems that CAUSE symptoms. That is just me. :-)
Thank you for your answear. I agree correction the structual problem that cause the symptoms is the best way. However not all people that are suffering from cervical distonia have to oppertunity to get those corrections. If medical marijuana "works" then it might be a good solution for some people. Heck it might even work better than prescritption medication, who knows :)
The only way it helps me is by reducing pain or distracting me but it does nothing for the condition other than making you forget about the pain a little, and even then it will still be bothering you while you're high.
This is honestly scaring me... Im 15 years old and I have cervical dystonia but not as bad as this. The only thing that happens is my neck tenses up and moves to the left. I have had this for about 8 months. And I've had to stop sports such as basketball and volleyball which mean a lot to me and has even cause me to go under depression. I've taken Botox injections once and I'm scheduled for my second set in the next couple of weeks. I just really hope this doesn't last for a long time😔
I have had spasmodic torticollus aka cervical Dystonia for 30 years. Botulinum Toxin 'A' is the best and most effective treatment, however it takes time for your neck to correct. It took me 4 years, and I had 20 years of being perfectly normal. No side effects at all. You must be patient and it's worth it.

This looks like anxiety is involved. Do you agree? And would anxiety apply to the general majority of cervical dystonia cases you have been presented with?
i think if we have misaligned jaw and have a habit of clenching the teeth often when stressed or other times, the shoulder muscle gets contracted and the head moves involuntary

Surgery is the best way...because? Cut what...since surgery involves cutting something. What if it is no better or actually worse, after surgery? What is the down side to correcting this with non-surgical, reversible means?
I have a dream of becoming the words best boxer, and maan. What a passion I have for it... it’s like Dancing 🕺🏻 n i developed this cervical Dystonia.. and fuck dude I cry about.. I have this one vessel with this one dream. I just hope I can do it and be able to to manage these symptoms
me too... I'm 20 and have something similar to this! gets worse when I am out with my friends, see large groups of people... I have anxiety and I lock myself away all the time.. Help me please! I'm tense 24/7 have neck and shoulder pains.. it's not as bad as this but it's still horrible and embarrassing:(((
+Daniel Connell I have the same, been having it for years. It gets worse when put into stress, pressure, lack of sleep, or anxiety (mostly at a place with many people and/or new people) I take medicine that calm down the blodpressure, but mostly it doesnt work but can make it a little better. I recommend to go see a doctor, it's not gonna help with waiting for someone else to bring the help. You gotta seek the help, and be patient and stubborn, cause doctors have to look at other things first before saying it's dystonia. You gotta be clear of how it is, some doctors can be lazy but you just gotta be stubborn if that happens. DON'T lock yourself away from society, that's just gonna make the anxiety worse, don't ever let the shakings take control of your life!
Keep your life going, for the pain in shoulder, I recommend massage and works out. Walks, swiming, yoga, tai-chi , sport activities. Not anything too big, but there are several good activites and trainings for tense shoulders and body. It can help the shoulders and make the shaking a little better (cause you get more relaxed)
And if patient reads the comments, just forget about it. It'll go away, and you're not a freak. At least it's not your lips and you can speak clearly :) Good luck.
I believe that is due to imbalance of neck muscles which in turn is related to poor alignment of the mandible. Once we aligned that correctly, then the symptoms got better. Physicians believe that it is due to random firing of the brain.
Any advice for me? I'm a constant no no shaker. Get BOTOX every 3 months to help but i don't think it's working anymore. Diazepam doing nothing either. 50yr old diagnosed when 28. In the UK. Heard about the cannabis oil so I'm not sure whether to take a chance in losing my job by taking it or just suffer for life.
I started off with a movement like this and a trunk spasm and a leg tic. It stayed the same for 25 years and then in 2017 I fell twice and now get shoulder spasms and face spasms. I'm also worst when I rest. An Osteopath has made a lot of progress with the shoulder.
I have cervical dystonia i feel so self conscious all the time ..This man is so brave
have you tried benadryl?
I have a problem but not like this mine goes no no all the time and when it gets bad I have neck attaks
Same :(

Not anything too big, but there are several good activites and trainings for tense shoulders and body. It can help the shoulders and make the shaking a little better (cause you get more relaxed)
what about benadryl?
That's exactly where I have the pain in my neck. And I have horrible head tremors. I wore my headgear every night
I had a head gear also
And if patient reads the comments, just forget about it. It'll go away, and you're not a freak. At least it's not your lips and you can speak clearly :) Good luck.
Great! thanks for your reply, I will include your name and website. All the best.
But what causes it?
I believe that is due to imbalance of neck muscles which in turn is related to poor alignment of the mandible. Once we aligned that correctly, then the symptoms got better. Physicians believe that it is due to random firing of the brain.
Any advice for me? I'm a constant no no shaker. Get BOTOX every 3 months to help but i don't think it's working anymore. Diazepam doing nothing either. 50yr old diagnosed when 28. In the UK. Heard about the cannabis oil so I'm not sure whether to take a chance in losing my job by taking it or just suffer for life.

I started off with a movement like this and a trunk spasm and a leg tic. It stayed the same for 25 years and then in 2017 I fell twice and now get shoulder spasms and face spasms. I'm also worst when I rest. An Osteopath has made a lot of progress with the shoulder.
Lorraine K-L Can I ask what osteopath did that helped?
@@JustME-ft4di It did not work long-term I'm afraid. I am now on Baclofen. This really does help.
