I have SEVERE muscle spasms in almost every muscle in my body. I cannot wear shirts with collars because the muscles are so tight in my shoulders and neck, any pressure on them make me dizzy. I have tried a chriopractor, but after each visit, the dizziness and pain was unbearable, same thing with physical therapy. I get so dizzy after they work on my muscles, I can't even walk around without holding on to the wall. I dont know what is causing this, or where to go. Does anyone know the technical term for the doc that handles muscles? Thanks

Whatever this is, the pattern is not consistent with a musculoskeletal condition. There is no muscular condition that results in spasms in the entire body and also associated with hyperesthesia and dizziness.
I'd start with seeing your physician or a neurologist...you need to rule out medical, neurological, and psychosomatic causes.

Muscle Spasms, I have them due to Rheumatoid Arthritis, therefore I see a Rheumatologist.

I would ask my primary care physician if he thought a referral to a neurologist would be in order. A neurologist would be able to test you for neuromuscular disorders.
