Welcome

I actually used to experience severe pain in my neck when my lumbar issues first started. My doc told me that once we get the lumbar issues under control that it might help the neck. He was right. I used to go to a chiro but really feel that he did more harm than good for me. I hope that you have been thouroughly checked out by an MD before going to a chiro. Good luck.
