YUP!
Mine's a sort of enlargement of a vertibrae in the nape of my neck. It protrudes more than the other vertibrae and feels/looks like a lump.
Also - i've noticed that if i move my head around and clasp my hands behind my back (sort of to crack my back/neck) sometimes i can actually abort an attack. The first time this happened i was in my car - getting an attack - it suddenly stopped and i couldn't figure out what happened (no meds, no water). Afterwards i realized that i was rolling my head and sitting up straight(er) and actually popping muscles/bones on my back/neck/shoulder.
I dislocated my shoulder (left - CH side) in 1991. First CH this year - i'd been sleeping on a couch for months (redoing my house inside) when they started. Wonder if i aggravated the shoulder injury by sleeping wrong on it. I've been thinking about a chiropractor - now i'm going to one for sure!!
i think this is something meaningful.
