Dystonia at Worst
March 28th, 2008 @ 3:52 PM in Life Stuffs, Web StuffsFortunately, I’m not as twisted as the guy in the video, but I do have a tendency to turn / look to the left, and the left side of my body is worse than the other. Compared to that guy, however, I’m a lot worse in that I’m not able to use both of my arms and walk on my own. Further, that guy is almost normal after receiving the Deep Brain Stimulation surgery.
My theory is that I had some sort of a seizure when I was an infant which brought on Dystonia that damaged the cerebrum of my brain, or the seizure itself could have caused both.
Just thought I’d share the video… ![]()

Would you ever consider getting the Deep Brain Stimulation surgery? I don’t know very much about it but was just curious if you would…

I already did 5 years ago without much success. I’m still adjusting the settings of my implants.
