I posted awhile back about having trouble holding my head up sometimes. It is getting worse. I can be just sitting and before I know it my head is hanging to the right and sometimes now it is falling forward. I really don't realize it is doing it until I have to start rolling my eyes up to see the tv or computer or the book I am reading.
My head has been shaking and that is getting worse also. It is like a yes nodding.
My neuro sent sent me to a neuro surgeon because I do have some back issues and thought they might be causing this.
The surgeon said I wasn't using the muscles on the right side of my face like I did on my left side. He told me to go home and talk to myself and smile in front of a mirror. He was right, the right side of my mouth doesn't want to go up like the left when I smile and when I talk I can tell I am not using the muscles nearly as much on the right side.
Also my right eye is sort of droopy. I have muscle spasms all around my right eye almost constantly.
He said I didn't need back surgery. I have some bulging disks and some arthritis in my spine. He said he could tell my whole right side of my body was weaker than my left and said it was all due to MS.
Does anyone else here have any of these kind of problems with their face and neck. As I said it is getting worse and I am afraid before long I won't be able to hold my head up at all. All of this started about a year ago and has progressively got worse.
Anyone got any input on this?
