Yes the startle reflex is a rather bizzar thing.
I have it & I feel like such an idiot when I jump at the slightest thing.
I think CP has a whole gammet of things that go with it.
This can be quite tricky because I never can tell if something's just CP or
if I need to have it investigated because its something else.
Where I live in Sydney Australia, I do not have access to a dr which
specialises in CP.
This sometimes can be a real problem.
I have to rely on my GP, who has been wonderful but, sometimes she doesn't
know quite how to help me.
