Dear Friends, I have autonomic dysfunction with a list of symptoms including seizures for 12 years. I am now 39 years old. Most of my treatment has been what appears to be the normal treatment for POTS. It is soooo reassuring to hear all of you discuss similar symptoms, to know that you are not alone, and most of all, to help me know that I am not CRAZY. I have caring doctors who want to help but just don't feel like they are educated in this particular area. I may be going to Vanderbilt now, not for a study, but just for evaluation. I have upcoming appointment with my doctors. They feel like they understands the "process" of this order, but don't feel the seizures are related. They want Vanderbilt to shed some light in the subject. Vanderbilt states all they plan to do is ortho static BP's and a tilt table( which I have already had one that reproduced a seizure on the table) I'm not sure it would be worth the trip. I am asking for your help. I have read several letters from you that say you also have hypoxic type seizures. I'm not asking for YOUR name, but if several of us had our doctor's contact each other with this info, then maybe we could earn some credibility in numbers. If any one would like to help, please let me know and perhaps we can contact through regular email or phone. I am desperate for help. My last "episode" had the doctors telling me I can't drive or work as a nursery/labor nurse. I have 3 teen age kids, love what I do as a nurse, and we are not surviving on my husbands salary as a police officer. I am trying to find work that I can do from home, hopefully related to nursing. Not being able to drive limits my choices for a job! Please help if you can and seek strength in your faith. He has a plan for all of us! Some days it is just much harder to figure out than others.
