Hi, I hope someone can help me with a big problem. Three years ago I had
surgery on my cervical spine to decompress a syrinx caused by Syringomyelia.
This has now left me with a great weakness in my neck. I am unable to hold
my head vertically upright and also my head is tilted to the left (but will
straighten with assistance). I have been given two soft collars to try but
the weight of my head is too great. As you can imagine this problem reduces
my recreational abiliity in many ways. I live in the U.K. Can anybody
help?,
