Default RSD Info please
I have had RSD for years and had it treated with sympathetic blocks. But recently a car wreck thru me back into RSD. I am undergoing the sympathetic blocks again but was wondering if anyone has had symptoms from RSD to include a "ZAPPING" feeling in my head, face and arms. I have fainted and then went thru seizures. I was wondering if anyone with RSD has had these symptoms with RSD.

Welcome Renee,
I'm sorry about these new symptoms.

I have that sort of thing, but I have a head injury and TOS, Thoracic Outlet syndrome.
Seizures is definitely a brain disorder.
The feeling in your face, head and arms could be the same, and/or from Thoracic Outlet.
See a GOOD Neurologist and have TOS ruled out, and see about the seizures.

Did you bang or hit your head?
Did you get 'whiplash"?
Just two things that could bring these on.

Please get those things checked out.

Pete

Pete,

Thank you. I actually have been diagnosed with TOC due to being on the crutches for 6 years. I didn't know that seizures were symptoms of TOC. The Dr's (of course) couldn't figure it out and said it was in my head. Just like they did my pain in my foot. Then I found the right doc and he found the RSD.
I will do my research on TOC. THANK YOU!!!

I do have severe whiplash that I am dealing with as well as the RSD. But I did not hit my head at all during the wreck.

I don't know that the seizures are a part of TOS/TOC - I haven't read anything about it on our TOS forum.

But the whiplash could have aggravated a few things - have you read anything about Upper Cervical chiropractic? also called c1/c2, atlas/axis - it is different than the usual DC adjustments.

www.upcspine.com is a good place to start learning about it.
