Dr. Diana Driscoll shares her remarkable journey from bedridden POTS patient to pioneering medical researcher developing treatments for autonomic dysfunction. Motivated by her own ten-year battle with post-viral dysautonomia and her children's similar struggles, she created patented solutions when conventional medicine offered no answers. • POTS is not a disease but a presentation of symptoms related to inflammation affecting the cardiovascular system • Dr. Driscoll's "Driscoll Theory" identifies high intracranial pressure as a common factor in POTS and dysautonomia • Her research uncovered neurotransmitter deficiencies, particularly acetylcholine, leading to the development of Parasym Plus • Inflammation creates oxidative damage, worsening symptoms and creating a vicious cycle that must be broken • Many POTS patients show signs of blood vessel leakage and blood-brain barrier disruption • Female patients often face additional challenges due to hormonal fluctuations increasing inflammatory responses • Recovery requires consistency and understanding your personal inflammatory triggers • Patients can maintain recovery by being proactive about their health and recognizing early warning signs • Genetic factors influence inflammatory responses and understanding these can prevent relapse Parasym Plus Info www.drdianadriscoll.com www.potscare.com www.vagusnervesupport.com Message the podcast! - questions will be answered on my youtube channel :) For more information about Long Covid Breathing courses & workshops, please check out LongCovidBreathing.com (music credit - Brock Hewitt, Rule of Life) Support the show ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The Long Covid Podcast is self-produced & self funded.
