Manon-just curious...did you get a consult with the docs before you left, or did you leave "AMA"? Did they have a complete drug history on you before trying the protocol that wasn't quite right?
Timberlawn is such a renowned state-of-the-art facility for successfully treating complex conditions such as yours, I am surprised they agreed with your decision to not give it a chance a little longer...seems like you just got there.
Sometimes, even unfortunate reactions such as seizures are an unavoidable part of the larger process and can be readily corrected if you continue on in treatment. That is sometimes just the reality of the very extreme complexity of the multiple conditions that you have.
My daughter experienced a few unexpected seizures until they got the medication combination just right, for her. But in the long run it was well worth it...she has gone from a chronic hellish nightmare of a life-always inches from death by a number of ways, including suicide...to now a reasonably happy life, part time employment, no more physical pain, only 3 meds, no hospitalizations in years, maintaining good relationships etc. But every time she "signed herself out" because the immediate situation was difficult, she ended up getting worse and losing more time out of her life. I know I may be over-relating to your situation, but it sounds so familiar. Of all the places you could go to, it seems like the Timberlawn program would be among the best and offer much hope. So sorry it doesn't seem to be working out.
