  Hi...yes indeed this could be from that MVA...have u had a MRI or been to a Dr to report this?

Many times if u go in and start off saying u had an accident 12 yrs ago....u may not get them to listen, but if u say u were doing reg house work and u turned and this really hurts, they will ask if u have had ne MVA in ur history then they may do a MRI to see what is going on.....that would be the best way to get them to listen...

U may have whip lash, or a syrinx may have developed slowly over the yrs....either way, u should be looked at.
  

   Good Luck and post an update on ur progress : )
