About Me

My name is Kelsey. I am 15 years old, and for about a year I have been been suffering from Chronic pain in my Neck, and back of head. It first appereared in the form of the neck pain, and then it started with the lower part of the back of my head. Ive seen many many MANY neurologists, neurosurgeons, psychologists; and to this day not one thing has even touched the pain im in. Recently (about 8 weeks ago) I had a cranial decompression for my Chiari 1 Malformation. We were really hopeful this would stop the pain, but it was unsucessful; And in the process has now caused some heart problems. I have also been diagnosed with Autonomic Dysfunction or Dysautonomia, Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome or POTS, and Nerurocardiogenic Syncope or NCS. Ive taken many different medications, Such as Depakote/Lyrica/Topomax/Imitrex/Migranol/Morphine/Dilaudid/Percocet etc. Other than treatment with Medicine, Ive also tried Nerve Blocks/Root Blocks/Massage Therapy/ and Physical Therapy. Im really not sure where to go from here. I used to be a active healthy teenager, I was so happy to finally be in highschool but That ended quick. Im homeschooled now, and my physical therapist says that I have the muscle mass of a 75 year old women.
