Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
Dystonia is an incurable neurological movement disorder.
The different types of dystonia include:
- Cervical dystonia - affects the neck muscles, causing the head to twist, pull in one direction or shake
- Blepharospasm – dystonia of the muscles around the eyes
- Oromandibular dystonia - affecting the muscles of the jaw, tongue and mouth
- Laryngeal dystonia - affecting the speech muscles
- Writer's cramp - affecting the ability to write and sometimes other hand-based tasks
There are several types of dystonia that affect more than one area of the body including generalised dystonia, which affects most of the body, frequently involving the legs and back.
Suzanne became involved with Dystonia a number of years ago and after seeing the challenges that both adults and children face living with this condition she decided to try to raise money for Dystonia UK, an organisation that is really a lifeline for many Dystonia sufferers.
