Tammy Posted November 27, 2009 Report Share Posted November 27, 2009 Thankful for a place to come and feel "normal" because we all experience and understand life with POTS. I don't know what I'd do if I didn't know anyone else who had this illness. I think of all the people who had this illness before doctors knew what it was and before computers, etc. People who lives in times when there wasn't power, who didn't have heaters or airconditioners, and so many things that aid in helping us cope with our symptoms. So I'm thankful for all the advances in technology and in the medical field and for all the people who made these advances possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kayjay Posted November 28, 2009 Report Share Posted November 28, 2009 I am thankful for a diagnosis after 10 (nearly 11 years). It has meant so much to me to have a "name" for my ever increasing problems! I am thankful for the wonderful Dr. who would not give up until he got a diagnosis! OH and I am a Dinet addict. Several times a day I read posts! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tachy Phlegming Posted November 29, 2009 Report Share Posted November 29, 2009 Keratosis pilaris.For years, I thought I was so unique and special (champion heart racer and all) and through this forum, have come to the dismal realization that everything I do from how much I sit, stand, and the type of exercise I do and the food I can eat is shared by a few people or everyone on here.Keratosis pilaris (not terribly severe) is the only thing about my body that seems unique to me on this board.
