    Hi just joined today I got diagnosed with cervical dystonia in January 2025. Just had my second dysport injection on Thursday. I am not feeling any better. Self-esteem really low. Looking for other people with this condition how they cope with this condition.

    I'm so sorry to hear that @spiderman1 I know that must be tough if it's not made you feel any better still, did they say how long it would take to kick in? Are you going to try and speak to your GP on Monday to see if they can suggest anything?

    We're all here for support if you need us. 😊

    Sometimes they're not instant acting, so hopefully the pain relief will kick in soon for you @spiderman1 ❤️
