Many thanks
A fairly obscure illness and 5 replies in 24 hours including helpful comment from the chairman of the support group and a harrowing account of your experience of the illness (DOP). My relative has had a very stressfull 6 weeks including long haul to LA twice to deal with business matters and this may be relevant. They were ill at home for 3 days and then admitted to hospital, not by ambulance, so the onset was severe but gradual. Very many thanks to all who have posted here; I will give an update after they have ben seen by a specialist which will hopefully be Monday.
