Most Americans probably feel this way too.

Your kids will live.

Have you ever heard of POTS (postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome)? It's a form of dysautonomia and my wife has it, but it seems as if very few physicians have ever heard of it, let alone know how to really help her.

She also has trigeminal neuralgia, and is currently on a very high dose of gabapentin to manage it. Are there any long term effects of high dose gabapentin use? Would it be better for her to get a surgery of some sort to deal with the neuralgia?

POTS can come about as an interaction between an autoimmune disorder and EDS though.
