These 2 doctors have saved my life they are pro's on what they'are doing they treated my neck, shoulder and thoracic spine i can't thank them enough. Karim
Hey guys, have you ever had a patient who was certain they had Cervical Instability, maybe even had the neurological symptoms and the grinding in the neck, but after running the tests, it turned out they didn't have it? How often does this happen?
I get PRK from Dr Jeffrey Harris in Kirkland WA. The procedure is nick named ‘crown of thorns’ as the numerous injections surround the whole crown of the head. I have had the neck injections also. And MANY others since 2018. Spinal balancing acupuncture really helped too, and NCR (neural cranial restructuring) with Dr Hillary Lampers-MT. It has been a hella journey.
After visiting 2 urgent cares while I was awaiting an appointment with my Primary, I'd been prescribed antibiotics and prednisolone for an extremely long duration "cold". They told me I just had allergies and shouldn't worry so much. I woke up on Christmas Day with a swollen/droopy right eye and "kaleidoscope" visuals. Also, I noticed that I could suddenly hear a loud swooshing noise in my right ear, and everything I ate tasted awful-really rotten! Due to the new symptoms, added to the "cold/allergy" symptoms and very aggravated, persistent cough (I felt like somebody stuck a thumb tack at the very back of my tongue, just below the visible horizon, and this contantly irritated my throat and uvula and forced me to cough all day and night. I went to the hospital, waited for 9 hours, and was yet again turned away. They did a blood test and sent me home with a report saying to come back if I got worse. I felt like a hypochondriac. My primary said my eye was droopy due to swollen sinuses. I told him to refer me to an allergist, then. He wrote me a referral to the allergist and to an opthalmologist to find out more about my eye and I secured an appointment at each, for February 6th and 12, respectively. She said it was NOT swollen sinuses-it could be a brain tumor-and asked if they had done any imaging of my head. She said I'd have to go BACK to my primary for a referral to have any imaging done-she couldn't even order the imaging. After a ton of phone calls, messages, I finally went back to the hospital and, desperate, told them I'd been having debilitating headaches every day. They told me to go home. I demanded that they do imaging of my head. After 36 hours, they brought me to radiology for a CT scan. They immediately wanted to repeat the scan, then they did an MRI also. Apparently I had an unruptured aneurysm in my internal carotid artery in my neck, just below my brain. It was putting pressure on my cranial nerves. They transferred me to another hospital (wouldn't even let me drive my own car, lol) and I meet with a neurosurgeon- and interventional radiologist, who put 2 stents across the aneurysm. My eye is starting to get better, finally, but it still droops when I'm tired. The craziest part is that I have literally had headaches since I was a kid-awful migraines accompanied by terrible nausea that last for days at a time, and I'd get several a month-between 3-6 of them a month, sometimes. It has been 4 months since my survey, and I have not had a single headache since. (Praise God!) The pulsatile tinnitus is gone, no more "allergies"... AMAZING! But what a struggle to get diagnosed!
I have been a TMJ pt going on forty years and a ruptured brain aneurysm followed by a craniotomy and have suffered with severe head and facial pain all on the right side. I had surgery on both sides of the TMJ and a second on the right. The looking drawn out history has made Drs completely frustrated to find a way to treat my pain. Do you think you, or perhaps a colleague in the Ocala area, would be able to try and relieve my daily pain, of more than thirty yrs?
I know that you have a lot of options for dealing with pain during a prolotherapy treatment, but what about patients with severe anxiety (from dysautonomia)?
Hi simo134, we do not do intradiscal injections here. It is more of a ligament concern, in our experience, because the discs bulge through the weakened ligament tissue.
I've been following your page for a couple of months. I'm in so much pain every day. I have EDS and at 48 yo my CCI is becoming impossible to live with. I recently had an MRI and C4-C7 have osteophytes and T-1 is herniated with impingement on the thecal sac. The intracranial pressure is horrible, my blood pressure is now high when it used to be too low, so much pain, vertigo, nystagmus, etc.. I am going for more brain scans and thoracic x-rays. Do you think you can help me?
My Neck is driving me crazy i get headaches lost of balance and Heart palpitations , The worse my neck has got the worse the symptoms have got . Ive seen doctors but they dont help much . im at my witts end
Join the club. I’m headed to houser. But first thing you want to do is get a neck doctor chiropractor that does Nucca , to re align c1 c2 because everyone’s neck is twisted. And regular chiropractors just make it worse. Then goto this clinic to get injections to ligaments.
@@Krishanapanchaal1 Headache, neck pain, tingling mouth, eye pressure. Instability reduced. My issue is/was circulation to the brain is not pumping or reduced because of excessive bad neck posture over the years. So to fix it they said i need to do twice a day neck correction using a dermarol device, every 4-6 weeks injection. I saw results on second month, not first month.
@@Krishanapanchaal1 I have not tried running or lifting weights yet, been four months. Kind of scared of re-triggering symptoms. It is so peaceful to not have symptoms again. But I know i need to get back to exercising and take advantage of the visits. Will start with walking.
This is like Netflix for hopeless Craniocervical treatment dreamers

Thanks for being here Karim - we are blessed to be part of your healing team!
Thanks for the myodural bridge explanation. And the emissary vein topic has been something I’ve been suspicious about as well. Good luck on your run!

Any partnerships in NY/NJ?? Or recommendations.
Ive completed 1 year of prolotherapy...unfortunately no releif 😩😩 now what?? My pain clinic said there wasnt anything more they could do for me.

Oops... The aneurysm was thirty yrs ago.
I know that you have a lot of options for dealing with pain during a prolotherapy treatment, but what about patients with severe anxiety (from dysautonomia)?
Hello, can you help people with not fully diagnosed inflammatory conditions like potential RA and fibromyalgia?
Do you know Who can’t do what you do in Texas Houston or Cypress Texas? Could use your help, thanks have a blessed dsy
Can prolotherapy and PRP be injected directly into a bulging disc?

U have breathing issue?
I’m fused C3-C6 so I guess these options wouldn’t be an option for me.
