orthotics and broken rib cage structure support? Pectus carinatum and epilepsy, all ribs been broken, organs okay but regular refracturing?

I am 66, had epilepsy 400 seizures since 14, All ribs been broken over that time, okay standing up, but attempting sleep, dangerous, have HPT which does not help pain signals! Any suggestions?

Sorry to see you have had no replies as yet, perhaps because this is beyond most of us with asthma, whereas your condition is far more complex? Maybe you need to talk to your gp for more informed advice. Good luck. 🤞

Thanks fraid! I knew this was going to happen, this is well beyond any GP's range, I've asked numerous times, have been scratching in obscure specialist's range, not looking too optimistic🥴🙄😤

Oops, sorry, I mentioned asthma instead of OP. Hope you get help you need, maybe a referral from gp?🤞

Thanks for the concern I have learnt from previous questions on this subject for decades, from numerous GP's on this particular subject, nothing forthcoming!
