I just had this issue a few minutes ago, and this has been going on for the past few years. I thought this was because I play the Trombone, but I guess it is not because people have it randomly.
I have been to an Emergency Room and went to different 2 ENT doctors but they said everything was normal. I even took scans, wore neck braces, and did some massages, but did not work whatsoever.
I'm currently very stressed as I am about to go to college soon. farther away from my family, so if this happens, it would be hard for me to get help either from roommates or other people around me.
This has been making me cry myself to sleep constantly to the depressed thought that this would go on for the rest of my life as I have many many more years to live.
I speak on behalf of everybody on this thread that we beg any specialists to look through this in-depth, as I am sure there are even hundreds, thousands, and millions of people who are also in the same depressive state as us but have not come up to voice their concerns.
We want to be heard. I don't want to feel scared to yawn or move my neck anymore.
Edit: I looked at other posts here, and the most common overlying symptom I saw was chronic fatigue/exhaustion. Not surprisingly, I have that too. Any quality and amount of sleep never seem to make me feel awake.
Maybe it's a thyroid issue?
Yes! I don’t understand why this is not more widely known! Doctors seem to have no idea what we are talking about! It is so frustrating!
