I have read about the autonomic nervous system going haywire sometimes. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.
I have you all in my thoughts and prayers.

Hi Sandy and Lindsey
I'm so sorry you passed out. RSD is an autonomic nervous system condition. Meaning the involuntary organs of the body are involved-body temperature, bodies regulary organs, and immune system. The sympathetic nervous system raises blood pressure and the parasympathetic nervous system lowers blood pressure-the low blood pressure causes passing out. I passed out one morning for at least an hour and half-paramedics said pressure was 60/40. I continue to have both high and low blood pressure.
I am allergic to dryer tissues for fabric softner and some soaps. I use Dove soap for bathing and tide for washing. Having scalp bumps-painful. Have had skin lesions and red dots, common with rsd. Have read on this site about this being related to rsd. I think there is some information on rsdrx.com puzzles list. It's a list of 150 question and answers by Dr. Hooshmand who practiced in Florida, specializing in rsd 40 years.
You are in our thoughts Sandy and Lindsey. Take care, loretta
