Hello. I posted this message back in November. I thought I'd post it again to see if anyone might have any new information on SND. TIA. David. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * My aunt in Virginia Beach, VA, was diagnosed in March 1996 with SND. We are searching for as much information as we can obtain on treatment, prognosis, protocol, and especially support groups. She knows of no one in her area that has SND, and is anxious to be in contact with others to form a support group. I have found some medical abstracts on several Websites (UPF and MassGen) and have searched through many links on the MGH Neurology Web Forum. Any information or direction that anyone can give us/point us to would be greatly appreciated. I will also be happy to post a summary of any findings I come across.
