@3TomatoesShort @Ashedryden Oh my gosh. That’s awful. I had never heard of it before. Everyone of the treatment sounds very complicated.

@Ashedryden
It's actually quite good news for me! Between MSALD (fatty liver) and May-Thurner, that may explain WHY I have POTS, so I'm hoping that if I can get the MTS treated, I may be able to exercise enough to improve my liver, and also have improvement in my POTS

It's likely that a lot of POTS patients have MTS (or something similar) without knowing about it. -

@Ashedryden SO sick of doctors dismissing things as "anxiety".
-
@Ashedryden Unfortunately, anxiety is the typical diagnosis by doctors who have no idea about the possible causes of illness. Understandable, but not justifiably. They should simply admit their impotence, instead.
@gisgeek @Ashedryden Unfortunately, male doctors are as misogynists as most men and just don't care about women's health. #patriarchy

@Ashedryden
I feel like we should start a hashtag for it, like:
#ItWasntAnxiety and then you add what it ended up being for you.
For me, #ItWasntAnxiety it was POTS and May-Thurner Syndrome.@3TomatoesShort @Ashedryden #ItWasntAnxiety it was Ehlers-Danlos Syndrom: genetic + epigenetic
Epigenetic is cause by deep root complex post traumatic symptoms, not just anxiety. -

@cousinsd Oh my god. That's more immediately life threatening. That doctor should have apologized. @Ashedryden
No, no apology, I didn't ask for one. I went back to the same medical centre several days later and requested a different doctor, I was sent straight to hospital. I still attend that medical centre and always refuse appointments with said doctor.

@Ashedryden OMG I literally got giardia and it took my doctor months -- three lifecycles for the lil wigglers and associated horrible pain for me -- before he stopped telling me I was imagining it and asked if I did any hiking or anything
at the time I had a full-time job working outdoors
which was in my records but the doctor apparently couldn't get his head around the idea of a woman going outside
much easier to believe I'm crazy!
antibiotics cleared it up in LESS THAN 12 HOURS
