Also curious if you have any additional issues when you attempt exercise?

I also have cirrhosis and degenerative disc disease. I get quite tired but walking and light yoga work for me. I just need to be more consistent with it. I have nerve issues with my left foot and will see a pain specialist for an EMG test soon. I use gabapentin when I really can’t sleep through the leg and foot pain but I would rather see a PT.
My neurologist told me the same thing about craning my neck. It scared me a little. I used to do that when driving all the time.
Thanks for sharing.

I forgot to say, sorry that you can’t take the aspirin. That really helps with the headaches. I also take a beta blocker due to portal hypertension. I am lucky that I do not suffer from dizziness. Hoping you can find an answer for that.

@lpyne No additional issues with excercise but I am not terribly physically active. I have a forty minute workout about 3 or 4 times a week. Light weights, 5 lbs and some pt recommended excercises for pelvic floor issues. I went for my two year check up recently. Everything was stable. Same cautions about neck manipulation. I did develop stomach ulcers and had to stop the aspirin. So now I do get more headaches and neck pain sometimes. Feeling fortunate that it has not been more of an issue. The ringing in my head never stops. Ugh! Wishing you well.
