Guest guest Posted April 8, 2006 Report Posted April 8, 2006 My mother and I both have a lot of neck and shoulder problems (we both have CMT 1A). I also have a lot of headaches. Recently, I realized that my neck muscles are very weak, something caused by the CMT apparently. I didn't even realize that the two problems (CMT and neck/headache problems) could be related. My neurologist and PT both said muscles atrophying in the neck could contribute to the pain and headaches that I have. Quote
Guest guest Posted June 25, 2007 Report Posted June 25, 2007 My neck used to really hurt a lot until I started seeing my chiropractor. It took a little while to start seeing a difference, but one day, I noticed that my neck didn't hurt anymore. I have pain in many other joints, but never my neck since being treated by my chiropractor. in Texas Ellen <ortizfamily04@...> wrote: I was wondering if anyone has had problems with their neck. And if so what do you do to get thru it! I have had RA for 4 years. Am currently (for the last 2 years)taking Enbrel. Lately my neck is always terribly painful, and it gives me such terrible headaches, ugh. I will be going to see me rheumatologist in about 2 weeks, but wanted to know what others have done to help with this situation. Thanks for listening!! Quote
