Bambamjr2013 Posted November 3, 2013 Report Share Posted November 3, 2013 I was just wondering if there were any minorities with this Condition. My doctor wanted to know if I could find any others to share and discuss this with. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hope Posted November 4, 2013 Report Share Posted November 4, 2013 No replies, that's interesting. I wonder what the STATS look like for dysautonomia regarding ethnicity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sue1234 Posted November 4, 2013 Report Share Posted November 4, 2013 I can remember one African-American woman who, I think, went by Sugartwin or something like that. Look her up(if that's the right name!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaos Posted November 5, 2013 Report Share Posted November 5, 2013 I know we've had Hispanics on the forum as well.I think dysautonomia probably hits across races and socio-economic groups pretty evenly. Whether it gets diagnosed evenly in all those cases is another matter. I know ME/CFS has been documented to occur throughout all races and socio-economic groups despite it's reputation of being "yuppie flu" that it got back in the '80's.Haven't seen Sugartwin on here for awhile but that was who I was thinking of as well. I know she was having some other neuro issues last we heard from her I believe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
