The Etiology of my Cervical Instability and a Brief Medical History // Life With CCI and AAI

[@nshep1388]

Does bracing help your POTS symptoms? My husband has bad CCI, with a ton of neurological symptoms like breathing problems, light headed, heart racing. Wondering if a brace would help. Thank you!

Did you have severe cartilage loss?

I love watching your videos and so happy you are now living a good normal life. I have a question. I am a patient of Dr. Hauser. I just had round 2 for my neck, Upper cervical instability and an “S” curve. I also have a severely tilted atlas. I have had every symptoms you mentioned. I also have ringing in my ears, light and sound sensitivity. But my questions are 1) did you feel sick or get sick often? I feel like I am sick often a lot lately, sinus issues usually which I assume is from built up pressure in my head and it closing off sinuses. 2) I know it’s different for everyone, but how many sessions did it take until you felt improvement? The first session I felt good for about 3 weeks then declined again. This second treatment it’s been 4 days and I don’t feel any better. He said it will take 4-5 treatments for me. Any insight or help is greatly appreciated. Thank you🙏

how are you now?

@@scooterthekidd I don’t think my main issue was CCI. I did 3 treatments and am seeing an orthogonal chiropractor that specializes in atlas alignment in my home town. My neck is strong and has perfect curvature and alignment so the Prolotherapy with Dr Hauser fixed that. Unfortunately my symptoms all continued except I have less headaches. I actually think my symptoms are more from Copper deficiency. My functional doc took lab work and looks like copper was super low and that can have a huge negative impact on health and have all the same symptoms as CCI. You have to be careful though because copper can be toxic if you have too much. I took 2mg a day of copper glycinate and in 4-5 weeks I felt so much better. I actually get almost back to normal. The bottle ran out and I haven’t taken it now for 2 months and my symptoms all returned. I started taking copper again 5 days ago and almost felt an immediate improvement. I may need to supplement a little dose of it daily forever and have blood levels measured regularly to make sure I’m not too high or low. But copper has a HUGE role in regenerating soft tissue and that may be why I had neck instability from not producing collagen/connective tissue in my spine and all over my body. I know my collagen was an issue because my hair grew back much thicker, and the ridges in my nails disappeared when I took copper. We will see. If the same thing happens I’ll know it’s the copper

oh wow .. that’s a pretty insane journey. i’m glad you finally have answers & are able to start feeling better! if you don’t mind me asking, what symptoms did you experience? and dr hauser diagnosed you with cci right - so do you think that played a role in your issues at all or no?

@@McNastySlam glad you feeling better, when you say very low copper, how low was that exactly? Thanks!

Did you try upper cervical chiropractor ? They put the atlas in right position and it helps to heal the ligaments and muscles

[@meganklee659]

Yes, I did!

[@Healingisfree]

Maybe try gently opening all the joints globally and breathing out full exhales when you feel any pain…that is something that is tried and true for so many conditions to resolve ☯️

[@cadeheinberg3047]

Oh my gosh your story is so similar to mine. Im 22 years old and just had to drop my classes. All of the diagnoses and random symptoms over the last several years and head/whiplash injuries making me severe. Im trying to get a DMX done to diagnose CCI. Do you have an instagram or facebook? I would really appreciate love to chat more about your experience.
