Its a word game, not two words or acronyms, a single word guys. Emergency is not specific to disability. Autonomic is ok.

I never said it had to be about spinal cord injury. Why do so many read stuff that was never there, then say justify it. Many consider narcolepsey a disability, we talked here recently how any personal affliction that more than moderately impacts a persons life can be considered a disability.

Yes, I know :redface: My bad, and since that answer I read this one properly too

Raynaud's ( A syndrome that causes discolouration of the fingers and toes, and can effect other parts of the body) but I think the end letter on this would be the D?

actually the condition does end with an s. Smoking increases the likelyhood of developing this- Ive seen it as a case manager.

Cool never heard of Raynaud's, sounds a bit like meningococcal. Snapped my collar bone in my accident. Shoulder subluxes and falls out of socket occasionally. Surgeon's don't pin them anymore.. unless it pokes through the skin.
