@migraineswithmina: Neck manipulation is one topic I’ll keep talking about. 🧠 Rare doesn’t mean impossible—and cervical artery dissection can have serious neurologic consequences. Patients deserve to know the potential risks before anyone manipulates their neck. #medicine #medical #doctor #brainhealth
When I started going to my chiropractor and told him about my migraines his first question was if I had a neurologist and did they have me on medications and what those were. He checks in with me regularly on where I’m at with them and always asks about any changes and if he notices I’m complaining of something more often encourages me to see my neurologist to discuss. I think it’s about finding the right chiropractor. He has run in to many MD’s completely ignoring him simply because he’s a chiropractor, that respect needs to go both ways. I’d be MISERABLE without my regular adjustments.

I have severe cervigenic headaches leading to more migraine attacks since seeing a chiropractor many years ago. Please never stop talking about this subject. I wish someone would’ve warned me more.

My chiropractor is so respectful. I have never let him adjust my neck. He has never tried to talk me into it either.

I am having such a hypochondriac meltdown bc I got a table massage and they cracked my neck yesterday 😭 I don’t go to chiropractor but try to keep up regular massage for relaxation etc. Took me by surprise and wasn’t discussed prior. Now if I see anyone new I’m going to ask and specify. And hopefully no damage was done from this one time ughhhhhh

lol having a chiro hate on you is like a compliment because it means you’re practicing medicine and not quackery

Girl what do I do if I’ve had a status migraine for seven weeks with two failed ER cocktails with all of the usual stuff plus nerve blocks plus trigger point injections ? What is there left to do? Only ever had two migraines in my life before this when I was a little kid and now I have one that literally won’t go away

I do not let them touch me ever. Not since one experimented on me with an electric rod to “stimulate” my ear nerves when I was 7 or 8 years old. (I’m deaf. And I’m now 54)

But… the research shows no causation, just correlation due to dissections causing symptoms like neck pain, headaches, and stiff necks,
