@Veroguilnec if you want to upload your scans we can have a look, we’re not doctors though, but might be able to see what’s going on. CCI wouldn’t show on a CT unless your vertebrae are obviously very out of alignment. There have been some discussions about a quick check you can do yourself to see if you might have CCI. @PatientD posted this info:
‘On instability topic, here are my practical tests to check yourself. Look in mirror - is your head slightly tilted to one side, is one shoulder higher than the other, if so is the hip higher on one side than other (put hands on hips), is one leg slightly shorter than other - get friend or family to help - wear flat shoes - lie flat- have companion put your heels together. If one heel is slightly shorter than other they can see that & tell you. If you have many of these characteristics this may suggest you have instability issue. Our brains keep our eyes even with the horizon & will alter body below in order to do that.’
If you do want to upload any images, please make sure there’s no personal information on them to protect your privacy.
Thanks so much Calista. How have you done to write to these doctors? I think we have to pay of course?Could you give me more “informations”?
Hello Jules thanks so much for your very quick answer. I’ll try tomorrow to send the images.Is it better to post them in this post or is it better I open my own post to be more clear? (sorry for my poor english) have a good evening (in France it is 20 PM)

@Veroguilnec - Your English is fine. Don’t worry about it not being perfect. We can understand what you are trying to tell us. I could never speak French as well as you are speaking English! I would have to use Google translate (translate.google.com) in order to make a sentence in French that you could understand. ![]()
It would be good for you to start a new topic & post your pictures there. That way the focus will be totally on you & there won’t be other conversations mixed in. Just click on the + Add New Topic tab in the top right of this page to get started.
Hello Jules I upload some scann ! I am a quite lost in the forum…Have all a great end 2025 and wI wish the best to all

@Isaiah_40_31 Hello Isaiah_40-31 Thanks so much. I think I haven’t done the good process for sending my images scanner so I’ll try to do again.Have a great end year 2025
I can add the images you sent me in a private message to this discussion if you would like, @Veroguilnec. Please let me know.
@Isaiah_40_31 Oh oh I am quite (very very in fact) lost in this big forum.I had (I believe) sent a second time in general forum by myself? You kindly answer to me as well as Jules did. I try to improve to well orient myself and stop mistakes in the forum..
I thanks again so much for your help! Have a nice 31th evening ![]()
@Veroguilnec - It’s fine to ask the same questions in a private message & on the forum. You’ll often get more opinions from messages posted on the forum because more people read the questions & look at the scans to give opinions. ![]()
There’s no mistakes here, some people find it hard to navigate around the discussions…I’m not at all tech savvy myself so please don’t worry! ![]()
