Hi, I was rear-ended in a car accident almost two years ago and was diagnosed with a concussion and a neck sprain. I have tried PT, chiropractors, massage, etc to get rid of this pain in my neck and shoulders. A few times in this time, it felt like it was all going away, but it would come back two or three weeks later.
My most vexing symptom is what I think of as a woozy, sort of "unreal" sensation, coupled with anxiety. I then get neck pain which feels more like tightness than outright pain, and my neck will crack and pop a lot at this time, or I think I try to move it so it will pop and crack, thus perpetuating that there is something majorly wrong with my spine. I reacted very emotionally to this accident, was hit by a drunk driver, and have had major anger toward this person.
In the past, I remember having some other major pains in what I thought was a prostate problem, and had weird pains and aches down there which were never found. I think I obsess over my physical health and put all my attention on these things.
I live in Alaska, so finding good doctors seems to be difficult, or at least specialists in things of this matter. I have read Dr. Sarno's books, and my personality seems to fit everything he was describing. I have issues of OCD as well. Ugh!
