CAN DYSTONIA GET BETTER?
There is a small chance of dystonia improving or disappearing spontaneously, with something like 10 – 15% of patients experiencing temporary (or occasionally even permanent) “remission”. Why this happens, to whom it will happen, or when it will happen cannot yet be predicted. This is of great importance, for it shows that the brain in dystonia may not be damaged permanently. THE DIAGNOSIS OF DYSTONIA Dystonia is a fairly rare condition, which your GP may not have seen before.
