Cervical Dystonia.....?

My mother has got this 5 yrs ago and she is on so much meds a anti depressent, tynol 3 and well 4 more pills who knows. She was in a group that supported that in Ontario canada but they were (in my opinion) all about them selves and rude oh my there were rude. Is there anything out there that can help her she gets 13 shots every 4 months and i feel soooooo bad for her i need to do something for her.

I am so sorry for your mom's pain and suffering! Here is a part of an article I found on-line:

Symptoms of CD often worsen while walking or during period of stress. Symptoms typically improve with rest or sleep. In addition, CD is the most common focal dystonia that responds to a sensory trick or geste antagoniste. For example, patients with CD may find that placing a hand on the side of the face, chin, or the back of the head, temporarily alleviates the dystonic posture. Leaning the head back against a chair or placing a hand on the top of the head may also help to relieve CD symptoms. The reason that sensory tricks work for some patients is not fully understood.
Evidence suggests that about 10% to 20% of patients with cervical dystonia may have brief, spontaneous remissions (Poewe W, 1992). Almost all affected individuals eventually experience a relapse of symptoms. An additional 10%, particularly patients with an earlier age at symptom onset, may have longer remissions of about two to three years, typically beginning during the first few years following disease onset.


I hope your mom gets competent medical help soon and that perhaps she experiences a remission to get a break from her pain.
God has promised a permanent solution painful conditions like this one. Revelation 21:4 says of God: And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away. I pray that God's Kingdom come soon, so that your mother and people like her will not have to suffer anymore.

I've heard of neck dystonia but never cervical dystonia. That must be very difficult to deal with. Your mum needs all the support she can get. Unfortunately there is nothing you can do for her except give her your support and sympathy.
