Hi,
I have compression fractures in spine. It turns out that this hyperthermia thing, that I have had all of my life but which has been so incredible heighten since the first spread of my RSD, I have seizures when I have a full blown episode.
See, both RSD and hyperthermia can be autonomic dysfunctions. Epilepsy, for example is an autonomic dysfunction, that simply means that a system in your body that should work automatically no longer does.
So, for me, both pain and body temperature no longer function they way that they should.
Do any of you here who suffer with back issues, of whom there are a great many, know if there is any difference between normal compression fractures and those caused by the stress of seizures?
There are a few case studies, but they seem to only say that they was this and here is how we operated on it. For me, surgery of any kind would and has been so dangerous, I have "dropped" with the introduction of all anesthesia I have a full blown episode of hyperthermia and lose consciousness when my blood pressure bottoms out. They finally began to introduce additional saline through me in order to help control my internal temperature which is raised with the anesthesia.
There would also be the possibility of the RSD spreading to a new area where trauma is introduced.
So, question is, does this sort of compression fracture have the same course of collapse as the other?
Thanks for your consideration
