Neck & head pain

[Guest guest]

Dear & ,

I, too, have pain in the back of my head near my neck. From what I

understand, it is caused from inflammation of the brain stem and/ or brain. I

have found that chiropractic help seems to relieve the pain quite a bit. Last

spring, when I was having severe seizures daily, I had to go to the chiro every

day, and every day my neck was out. It was not my neck that was causing the

problem; it was just that, when the brain stem is inflamed, it takes such a

little bit of aggravation to stir it up. Also, the swelling in the brain stem

keeps causing the neck to go out, so it is a vicious circle. All I know is that

when I am having bad seizures, they will usually stop if I can get to the

chiropractor right away.

My pain also moves to one of my eyes if it continues. Then the pain gets

horrible! Have any of you ever had the feeling that something is pulling on an

eye from the back? (sounds weird, I know.) I have had that feeling sometimes

when I have the seizures. I also get the feeling that my eyes are " jiggling " or

that they are trying to cross. Anyone else? It has improved a great deal,

though, since I have been on DHA (available at health food stores), that

essential fatty acid for the brain. It is also important for brain/eye

coordination. My natural doctor has me on almost 3 times what is suggested on

the label.

Thanks, , for your recent responses. I have not read Dr Page's book,

but I have read several on natural healing and detox, and I will look for it. It

sounds good.

I am curious about how your seizures " behave " . I don't know if you have

access to my original messages describing my spells. I would be interested in

knowing if yours are similar.

Thanks again. Dorothy
