I don't know if I can be of much help. I have panic disorder and a bad neck! I have had numerous times in the recent past when I would go to bed and as soon as I would lay down on my back and close my eyes I would get incredibly dizzy. I also get very sick to my stomach from the anxiety. My stomach always is bothering me and being nauseus is almost a daily occurence. I hope you are feeling better soon. By the way, I take Xanax for the anxiety.

Hi there,
I can't address the questions you asked but wanted to relay how ruddy incredible it is that you are able to get on the net and advocate and inform yourself.
i was a paraplegic (temporarily) when I herniated a disc c5 in my neck. I was unable to move my upper body and arms for 2 1/2 weeks and it was very frightening. I felt so incredibly isolated inside of myself. However, it passed as the herniation lifted and i am left with chronic pain, pins needles, electric shocks but i manage as i deliberate over a scarey surgery.
I taught piano and my fingers are still able to play for tire easily and I really miss my old life with all 40 piano students plus my accounting job in the a.m.
Life is so bizarre and then I see someone like you able to get it together and advocate and research and its "ruddy amazing".
just had to tell you .... Nero
