Are there any autopsy findings indicating prion disease in those who have RSD as there are with CJD? Typically, these things are found and prion-related disease yields significant cognitive slowing over time which I haven't seen in the research with RSD, though I'm by no means any type of expert.

Hi Lori Lee,

I hope these lines find you doing well. I am by no means saying I have this or anyone else. But in my case I have always known something broke the BBB.

The first 3 years I had just noticed the RSD in my PNS, a bit after the 3 year mark it went to my CNS. Around 5 years into RSD I noticed short term memory loss,with cognitive impairment as well. Maybe some others who have had RSD for over 5 years can share weather they have cognitive impairment, or short term memory loss??? I have lyme and Bartonella though, I also had to be treated for other parasite infections as well. Much Love, Roz
