Mad Epilepsy & sky diving

Hi, everybody:

I have epilepsy, controlled by Keppra and Klonopin.

I love sky diving. It is my "drug". My neurologist does not want me to do this sport and I refuse, I absolutely refuse to abandon this sport I love so much. We are several people to jump, me and my friends, one by one. In the area where I am supposed to land, there are several people waiting with a very large sort of net to catch me when I land and avoid injuries to my head and to the rest of my body, where I have RSD.

I do everything I can to avoid injuries with my epilepsy and RSD when sky diving and landing from sky diving, so I do not understand this neurologist's attitude, especially considering the fact that my orthopedic surgeon said I can sky dive as much as I want.

Thanks for sharing your opinions.
