About me

Introduction	I am a 25 year old female trying to bring awareness and understanding to invisible chronic illnesses. I am currently on medical leave from grad school and unlikely to return to previous program due to dysautonomia. I have likely had Dysautonomia and related conditions all my life, but they worsened while I was in grad school. I have been diagnosed with POTS (Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome) which is a type of Dysautonomia. Other diagnoses include Small Fiber Neuropathy (sensory and autonomic), Essential Tremor, Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome Type III: Hypermobility Type, Migraines etc... (it is a long list).
