Can you please help me?

I am a Dystonia sufferer and would like to make contact with any other Torticollis Dystonia sufferer.Have had it for 15 years.

Not having information of your location, I add two links for support groups, one for the UK and one for the USA/Canada

Try going to Yahoo groups and search for Dystonia. There are a few support groups on the Internet for this. It's a great way to meet others.
