Dystonia! Heard of it? I need a GP who knows what it is too! (Portsmouth)?

A bit of a longshot!! I've moved recently and had a great GP who found out all about the condition. New GP hasn't heard about it and doesn't seem to want to know. Suggested Yoga and breathing techniques, but not really an option with Dystonia! Anyone know a good GP in Portsmouth (UK)?!! Thanks.

It can be caused by an obverdose of 'haliperidol'. Shakes, convulsive seizures etc. Suggest you look online for more informative answer...suggest BMA website. Good luck and best wishes.
