I have a fused vertebrae in my neck C5&C6, Its give me pain, tension, bad headaches sleepless nights since I was about 14 as I have got older and grown its got worse. Due to them being fused my nerves between them are being squashed and thats what causes the pain,also the vertebra above and below are getting stiff and painful as they are compensating for the fused ones. I have been to the physiotherapist, chiropractor & the Doctors but none help. After leaving the chiropractors I feel a little relief but only for about a hour. I get no sleep as the pain is so bad, only way I can get a good sleep is if I take Diazepam through the day which relaxes my muscles and knocks me out, but I cant do this for ever as the doctor told me id get addicted to them and I can see why. I have tried heat pads, cold pads, hot baths, cold baths, neck massage machines, inferred heat. Ive been told I could have surgery but its a 50 50% chance it would make it worse. anyone have this problem? if so what help u
