Question
Hi
I would love to get in contact with Danielle and find out if she found a solution to her problem.
I'm having practically identical problem for past 5 days and pretty scared.
I went last week to chiropractor for my lower back problem, since I'm a table tennis player and my lower back pain comes and goes every few years. This time got little more sunburn and unpleasant so i decided to get adjustment.
I did not plan to have my neck adjusted, but it happened, since doctor was assuring me that there is no fixing lower back without adjusting whole thing. However he told me that after he cracked my neck very intensely and it was so bad i didn't want him to adjust other side, but he insisted. I got home this day not only with lower back pain, but also with headache, feeling weak, dizzy, not being myself. Now, five days later, i still have headache, pain in the base of my head, upper neck and I'm not feeling good at all. Doctor is confirming me that it's normal and my body is adjusting to the proper alignment of my neck. I kind of like my previous alignment to be honest.
I just got back form CT scan and ultrasound. I'm afraid that my headache will last just like Daniells does and instead of being happy healthy very active person i will just suffer and wonder what to do next and how to get rid of pain. Back of my head is burning. I'm getting tired of it and i want to get back to my normal life.
I hope Danielle got better and found some solution for the problem. I would love to hear form her.

Hi Beata,

Sorry I wasn't able to get back with you immediately but we have severe flooding here in the Midwest and in our house.

I searched and can't find any Danielle that I answered a question for.

Regardless, you need to see another Chiropractor; many are not up to par. Like any profession, there are bad apples in each. Your problem is so easy to fix it is ridiculous. All that needs to be done is towel traction and a slight thrust at the end of 5 seconds of 50 lbs of pull to re=align things the way they were. Call around and find a DC that doe抯 towel traction with thrust and the pain will be gone immediately. If you have trouble, give me a call and I'll personally find you one that is qualified.

Don't wait any longer!
