Hi there Sorry to hear that you aren't doing well, I hope things improve for you soon. It helps me quite a bit to talk to God, He always knows when I have reached my limit and need a break.

But the thing that jumped out at me from your post was the "passing out from the pain" part. I, too, thought I was doing that, for several years. But when it turned into full blown seizures, I was diagnosed with frontal lobe epilepsy. I have been told that the rsd affects my frontal lobe, and may be responsible for my epilepsy.

NOT that I am trying to diagnose you.... I am not a physician. I would just like you to keep careful watch over yourself, and have your family do it as well. Do you ever "nod off", even when not tired? You know, just find your head hitting your chest for a sec, then you jerk back awake? I have hurt my head several times, having that happen while on the potty. It turns out those are just a different type of seizure, at least in my case.

Take care, hon.... may you be happy and well.
