1. Steve Hanam Steve Hanam United States says:

    The only other post I see is from Ecuador in 2011. It goes unanswered. I have had this disorder for over 20 years and nothing has made me feel different than when first diagnosed. Yes, medication helps control the startle reflex but causes me to be completely useless as a human being. I contribute so little even though I have many people who expect more. It is a completely disorienting syndrome that affects my total physiologic health, family health, and contributes to an uneasiness about almost all things. I was physician prior to the onset of this syndrome and caused me to leave medicine entirely.

    It took my life from me and I remain angry at it still.
