Hi, there is life after SSM. It won't be easy. I jerk, become dizzy and sometimes pass out. Thankgoodness, this isn't all the time. I have some good days as well as bad ones. The meds the doctor gave me made it worse so I decided to take nothing. I do drive some but not as much as I use to. I have other issues so it makes it seem worse than it really is. Lots of luck to you. This is the only site that seems to understand what we all are going through. Hang in there
