I have been going to Dr Mari at Cleveland Clinic here and nothing but excellent.
Dixit sounds familiar. I wonder if he practices at CNS on west flamingo. The only problem with the cleveland clinic is their backlog. I was told 2-3 months to see "Zoltan" for botox in my neck. I have tortocollis and it really sucks.

Well done, my friend! You and lvmensch are my favorite.

Anyway, I see a family practice doctor tomorrow for hopefully some medicine to calm down this painful and socially awkward condition. Don't really want to go on benzos, but it might be the only way.

Thanks for the education. I did not know what Torticollis was until you mentioned it. The Botox relaxes the muscle so your neck straightens?

Living with a person who has Parkinson's, I can confirm Dixit is a joke and you will not get better care than the Cleveland Clinic. Dr. Mari, for instance.

Yes, that is exactly what happens. The only caveat is you have to go every three to four months.

Yes, I am sure that is why there is such a backlog. It sucks because the symptoms are ruining my quality of life. I can relate to you since my Stepfather has Parkinson's and my mother has more or less become his live in nurse which is fine but she never gets a break and is stuck in the house.
