I am meeting a cardiologist today and my biggest fear is that I will walk away from the appointment receiving no help and no plan of action of where to go or what to try.

The last time I met a new doctor I walked away, feeling very defeated. I’ve been chronically ill since age 10. I’m now 27 and I’ve grown a lot. But when you explain something that’s going on to a doctor and their response is “that can’t happen”, you feel very lost and defeated and lose trust in the medical system.

Fingers crossed for a good appointment 🤞🏼. #POTS #PosturalOrthostaticTachycardiaSyndrome #Dysautonomia #MentalHealth #Anxiety #NewSpecialist
