Well, the cervical collar didn’t work for me. I already use a thin pillow that I fold under my neck for support. The cervical collar, even though it was fairly loose felt like it was cutting off the blood supply in my neck. It made it pound all the harder. I also watched your video about external communicating hydrocephalus and realized the I get worse on the days I take Florinef. I’ll be talking to my PCP about Diamox soon. My husband is downloading Part 2 as we speak. I’ll keep you posted!
I’m so glad I found you. Thank you for sharing your insight!

You’re so welcome! 🙂

“Dr. Diana will always hold a very special place in my heart for her selfless devotion to helping everyone, not just the Ehlers-Danlos community. I hate to think what my life would be without her insight and guidance.”
