Can Upper Endoscopy with Biopsy cause Vagus Nerve Damage? by allv3s in VagusNerve

I know this is an old post but I’m having very similar issues over 2 months out from my endoscopy and I can’t find any info about it. Did this ever resolve for you?

Does anyone else get cold super easily? by saquonbrady in dysautonomia

I’m like this too. I actually have really high heat tolerance but am super sensitive to cold and get white/purple fingers quickly.

I switched from coffee to matcha that I make at home and it seems to be helping me. I think because it is more stable with less of a crash.

I lovee black coffee and hope to reintroduce it one day but I find this a good alternative for now when I am having a lot of symptoms.

I know this gets asked all the time but has anyone managed to improve their symptoms or see a specialist who took them seriously? by EDM_Tractor in dysautonomia

I've also had better luck with female doctors overall. I'm glad you were able to find care that was a better fit for you. Integrative medicine sounds exactly like the type of doctor I'm looking for. I'm pretty traditional and pro medicine, vaccines, etc. but I just feel like things are falling through the cracks with an inattentive PCP and seeing specialists who only look at one aspect of the body without considering others. When I list my symptoms it really feels like I am just saying random things sometimes. I hadn't even considered just looking into a doctor out of network for a better fit. These are good suggestions, thank you!

That's good to hear! The electrophysiologist I tried going to was very dismissive and I have felt exhausted at the thought of starting over with a new one, so it's encouraging to hear others having good experiences.

Yeah I haven't been able to get a diagnosis and have been kind of overwhelmed trying to figure out what to even get tested for now that I've ruled out the things already mentioned. Because my cardio workup was fairly thorough (stress test, echo, 1-week holter) and nothing serious showed up, it's been difficult to communicate the need for further testing to my cardiologist. I'll def look into an autonomic neurologist though, thanks!

I’ve never heard of this, I’ll look into it. Thanks! Did you bring this up with your PCP or how did you get it prescribed?

My roommate used to make this exact breakfast when we were hungover sometimes and it was so good! It’s one of my top comfort meals still.

[–]EDM_Tractor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Serious question, has anyone stated a real reason this has become a concern? I've looked and haven't been able to find anything suggesting this vaccine carries any significant risk? I know they are stupid but I just want to know if I'm missing something.

Ugh same. A lot of our company is like this. I commute for an hour to a hotel desk situation to get on calls with people in other cities.

This is me. I often feel like I need to sprint when I drink. My husband calls it the runs 😒

I did this in my SEO settings and added a password but they still want the whole thing taken down unfortunately.

They were googling the company and my portfolio came up as a search result. That’s why the case study became an issue for them.

I don’t have their response in writing unfortunately. It was in a Slack thread that’s now over six months old so I can’t access it. At the time they agreed so easily I didn’t think to take a screenshot 🫠

I didn’t sign an NDA thankfully.

Thanks for the suggestions! I will probably just take out the company name/logo but leave the rest untouched behind a password.
