[QUAD-L] About A.D. = Autonomic Dysflexia

[Quietstream25322]

There was a guy that used to post here that said he thought his room-mate died from AD. Have any of you ever heard of anyone dying from it ?    I have only got AD. twice in the 8 1/2 years that i have been paralyzed. The 1st time was almost 2 years ago when i got a bad psuedamonas uti infection. Then now I started getting AD. real bad and had to go into the Hospital for same infection--- I just got home 2 days ago from the Hospital and many IV drugs. They gave me pain pills to help with my AD. After my 1st bad psuedamonas infection I kept getting AD. on and off for nearly a week, This Time I'm still getting it also so I hope it will go away in a few more days. My question is---Many doctors are not real familiar with AD.-- A scary thought comes to my mind--- what if it don't go away or doctors can't find what's causing it----I guess it can kill a person. For those that never had it yet---It is severe pounding and sharp pain in head that can keep increasing.                                                                              Thanks, Dan
