Thanks for all the links sirI. I had researched the heck out of it several years ago because several friends who have HPPD constantly complain about the lack of knowledge or familiarity with it in the medical community so I thought I would post and get an idea just how many nurses are familiar with it. Apparently very few. Hopefully others on the board will read the links and become familiar with a condition that is increasingly more common.

You are welcome. I agree, educating oneself about this is necessary. I enjoyed reading the links above while researching this.
