dystonia

I have had dystonia for 9 months. I can not stop twitching my neck and i cannot stop my lower jaw from clapping to my upper jaw. My primary dr. prescribed flexiril and ivproffin, neither worked. I went to a neck specialist for another exam where i was diagnosed with tics/dystonia, I was prescribed with Bacolfren and it does not work. However the dr. referred me to a neurologist wed.oct 2 -07 for botox. My situation is worse than ever, hopefully the botox will work.
