Ohio

I was born in Toledo and have 2 other family members (also from Toledo) with POTS. I now live in Arizona. I always thought it was a strange coincidence that Dr. Grubb was in Toledo. My thought is that these conditions are not rare at all, just grossly misdiagnosed and under-diagnosed.

I was born and raised in Akron and still live here. Plus, my doctor said that based on my history I have probably had dysautonomia all my life. I am amazed at how many of us live in OH!

I am from Ohio, Lima, and we have a refinery here, and also a chemical plant. I was diagnosed at CCF, Dr. Fouad. I've lived in Ohio my entire life.

Hi I am the latest to join this group. I live in Hilliard Ohio which is a suburb of Columbus. I have a great DR at OSU if anyone is interested.

Hi, again, all you Ohioians.

My husband had an interesting theory on this. He said that under northern Ohio there is a huge aquifer, and he wonders if something couldn't be leaking into that to get into a lot of Ohio's water supply, such as from a refinery doing deep-well injection to get rid of their waste (like the refinery in Lima, and possibly the one in Toledo).

Just wanted to share that.

Hi, Mark. Yes, I'd like to know who you see as I don't have a Dysautonomia doctor at this time. Heck, I'm to the point, I don't even know what kind of Dysautonomia I have anymore. It doesn't look like POTS, so we don't know what it is, only that I just don't function right.
