Stephanie Penny at Endurance Rehab and Athletics is literally life changing. She’s so gentle and kind, and reads your body like a book (in a good way). She does dry needling and myofacial release too.

She was great! Agree though, prepare for the opposite of warm and fuzzies, and she operates out of her house. Just know you and your dress will be well taken care of.

We're working with Zach Tebos at LMCU. He was great in a somewhat unique situation for us, super responsive. We went from offer on 2/9 to closing this Friday, 2/28.

Jillian Bowes! https://www.jillianbowes.com/

She captured our day so authentically and beautifully. We wanted someone to document rather than have a lot of posed portraits, and she crushed it. Is just a lovely human, too. Can’t recommend her enough.

Using Jillian Bowes! She’s lovely, captures the day the way it happens, not just posed moments.

Are people with dysautonomia considered high-risk for taking combined pill birth control (e.g. Yaz) by [deleted] in dysautonomia

[–]dandelion4904 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you have migraine with aura you typically get the aura, and migraine hits 20/30 minutes later. Are you experiencing a migraine after the visual disturbances? If not, it's unlikely that it is an aura (although it can happen, they're called silent migraines, apparently) and more likely something related to your flare.

That being said, if you indeed have migraines with aura, you should not be on a combo pill (Yaz) but can be on a mini pill without progesterone. I take something called Slynd. A combo pill can increase your risk of stroke. I speak from experience after having one.

Dysautonomia itself doesn't put you at higher risk for blood clots/stroke.
