Social Security Disability for Dysautonomia

 Good day everyone! ***The information I have below is from disability secrets.com. This is to help those who have questions on; if they can go on Social Security/Disability with Dysautonomia. The link is attached as well. I hope this helps.   http://www.disabilitysecrets.com/conditions-page-2-55.html Dysautonomia describes any disorder of the autonomic nervous system. (The autonomic nervous system controls the operation of organs and functions as body temperature, heart rate, digestion, and blood pressure.) Some autonomic dysfunction disorders are: postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS) pure autonomic failure (PAF) orthostatic hypertension multiple system atrophy (MSA) inappropriate sinus tachycardia (IST) neurocardiogenic syncope (NCS), and neurally mediated hypotension (NMH). Because dysautonmia disorders can affect any body system, the symptoms of dysautonomia and their severity differ widely among patients...

Homeopathic Medicines/Supplements for Dysautonomia

In this Blog I would like to add the "Homeopathic Medicines/Supplements" that actually can help you with your wide variety of symptoms you have with Dysautonomia. I know this due through experience and also the help of a Medical Doctor who knows of these Homeopathic Medications, that actually does work and can help you. What is great about taking these is that you can take them with your medications without having any side effects but as always, consult with your doctor first or someone who is experience with Dysautonomia. I am not sure what medications you take and I do not know all about Medicines because, I am not a doctor but, an experience patient per say. These types will help with  your main symptoms that most Dysautononomics complain about. Many do not like having that anxiety feeling and are so sick of the wide variety of body pain that you have to deal with day in, day out. It's a constant with some and with others it just shows up without warning. Also, All...

Dysautonomia/Dysautonomics-Differences

* Note : This information I give you on Dysautonomia is information given to me by a special doctor. I am not a doctor or, here to act as a doctor. I am here to write and bring awareness to those who are interested in knowing about, Dysautonomia .* I wanted to write today about teaching other's about the differences of Dysautonomia/Dysautonomics. I know as you read other blogs, websites, videos, research, etc., that they all tend to say something different and it gets very confusing to us all who, are just trying to figure out what is going on with our bodies. There are many different blogs today and many different Facebook pages that have communities for people to join, so they can vent, talk about their heath, and so on. It's a way to communicate with others who have same or alike symptoms and, bring awareness. We all have a story to tell ,yet we are all different. Not all of us is alike but, similar. So let me throw some facts at you that can give you some...

Dysautonomia climbing and getting confusing

The more I continue to research, the more I learn from others and the more videos I see, Dysautonomia has come out of the wood work to the max. My most recent read is of  a male infant with Dysautonomia. First off, not many men were coming out with their symptoms but mostly, women. Men are just finally feeling comfortable about talking about it. More and more male infants and male toddlers, male preschool, male middle school, male high school is on the rise. And, lets not forget adult males. Dysautonomia is not just a female dysfunction. It's all sex. It's everyone of all ages. Also, Dysautonomia affects everyone differently. Some cases can be devastating and some cases can be mild,and there is, in between. The numbers are growing and people are desperate for a cure. They want awareness. They want someone to do something about it. I know I do. What makes this even more complicated is everyone has a story and a different story with different symptoms but yet, similarities. M...

Alcohol and the ANS Dysfunction

Happy Holidays, Merry Christmas, Happy New Years to everyone! It's that time of year for cheer and fun. We go though this every year. ; ) With the Holidays we tend to have lots to do and so much stress is added to our system. Also the wonderful food and spirit and ,over doing it. How can we help it? It's so good. For some of us, there are just certain things that can aggravate our system. One thing is Alcohol. Alcohol does allot to the ANS (Autonomic Nervous) system. I am not saying you can not drink but ,what I am saying is you will have to figure out with Dysautonomia if Alcohol does something to your system, which in most of us, it does. First off Fibromyalgia is piece of  Dysautonomia. Not everyone with Dysautonomia has Fibromyalgia. But, with the ANS system Alcohol plays a major roll when too much is consumed or, maybe just a little. It depends on your Dysautonomia and how it affects your system. Alcohol affects the nervous system by stamping down the signals between...

Dysautonomia and Smoking horrible combo for ANS System

It's been a long while since I have put up a blog. Like I said before in my other blogs that, it does take some time to write about it because I too go through it and, so does my son. I am able to share our experiences with Dysautonomia and, help out others who need the help and need the education on what happens to someone with, Dysautonomia. I also get my knowledge through educated doctor's from Europe who know this disease, very well. I have also read up on allot of other people who have Dysautonomia and read their stories on, their Blogs. To you all, my heart is with you and, if I can shed some light on you in some way, I will do my best. I know some are going to write a Book. Much blessing  to you as well on helping those understand about their disease that is very frightening when, most doctor's here in America have not researched it or learned it in,  medical school. My primary care doctor is one person who is honest and up front and did say that, he never learned ...

The Anxiety from within

That Anxiety feeling. Is that what it is? Are we having an "Anxiety Attack" or is it all in our heads?  That awful feeling that comes from within. It just comes out when ever it feels like if for no apparent reason at all. That feeling is horrible, debilitating, someone call me a shrink or give a pill to stop it! People are looking at me like I am insane or just plain crazy. Am I? Why do I feel this way? I "HATE" it! Why is this happening to me? I asked why? I just want to go for a walk  in the beautiful sun. I want to go to the beach but, I can't. I want to be in open spaces but, I can't. I want to go to the mall, make it to the second floor but, I have to come down, fast. My chest is pounding. My hands are sweaty, I am going to pass out. No one in my family understands me. They think I am insane. Get me out of this nightmare, PLEASE!  OK....can you relate to what I am saying? Because if you can, your not alone. This happens to many people with, ...
