You need to see a neurologist who specialises in movement disorders. ASsi your GP to refer you. don’t know know if you have a neuro centre in Manchester. There is one in Liverpool - Walton centre There is a Dystonia support group in Manchester. Details can be found on the Dystonia website or ring them up. I’d you don’t get anywhere get back to me. Hope you get proper diagnosis and treatment Tim
