my daughter has been having back pain &
dizziness for the past couple of hours.
They coincide w/ each other. She has been
eating well & still has an appetite. We
took her to a dr on ft leonard wood (mo)
last week and they did an xray on her
spine but they have not gotten back w/ us.
She was pushed off of our trampoline about
a year or so ago, and hit her back on a
rock, but seemed fine at the time and had
normal mobility and no tingling in her
extremities or numbness. She is currently
taking concerta for ADHD. Please help us
out as it takes weeks to get an
appointment and then might not be the same
dr. ER is like a 6-9 hr wait if you're not
dying or missing body parts as the BCT
pvt.'s have that place packed. thanks

Hello Iwolfman,
Welcome to this forum and the great people
here who post and try to help one
another.
I am not a doctor, however, the back pain
WITH the dizziness concerns me as I know
it concerns you.
Is it possible for her to see a
neurologist/spinal surgeon in the private
sector. I hope so.
Do let us know how things go for your
daughter.

With due respect Expatient, she needs to
seek the advice of a neurologist/spinal
surgeon, not a osteopathian as you
suggest.

That is just your opinion. You can be
wrong...
Osteopathians release neural pressures by
opening joint locks and as a result neural
functions improve. They also release tight
muscles.
Pain is due nervous signals. Usually tight
muscles cause it. Also dizzyness is many
times due tight muscles in neck and they
can compress blood vessels and prevent
blood circulation to brain.
So why would she need spinal surgeon if
there is nothing wrong in her spine, at
least not yet found anything?
I visited two neurologist and they didn't
find the cause for my problems. They had
no idea. Even if the cause was obvious:
misaligned pelvis and because of that a
scoliosis, asymmetry in the whole body
posture and tight muscles all over my back
and neck. Once balance was returned my
chronic dizzynes, back pains, headaches,
migraines, etc. are history.
