Anytime I went upside down I'd pass out or maybe it was blackout.

Have you had an MRI of your brain and neck? The reason I ask is some of you symptoms sound like Chiari Malformation. Blackouts, numbness and tingling, difficulty swallowing. I would check with a neurologist. Personally, I know I feel better when I have a diagnosis. Unfortunately sometimes more than one condition is needed to cover all symptoms.
No matter what happens the support here is better than any I have ever experienced. The people here are often more educated in CRPS than many healthcare professionals. I am lucky enough to have a very supportive family but they don't really understand. However having people who are going through what you deal with everyday is invaluable.
