C. April 2005 Car accident caused severe neck pain. Any lateral flexion would aggravate and cause inflammation. Inflammation would cause muscle spasms in different muscles anywhere in the body. Facial twitches, twitches of muscles in foot, abdomen, glute, quads, biceps, triceps, fore arms. anywhere. Just not all at once. By November 2005 still was not better and began entering depression.
