Guest dionna Posted December 1, 2006 Report Share Posted December 1, 2006 i think that it is theorized that everyone in the world is linked to everyone else by as little as 6 or 7 people. i thought that was interesting. yes it is a small world.dionna Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eli6596 Posted December 1, 2006 Report Share Posted December 1, 2006 Wow, that is amazing. I am lucky if a doctor knows what POTS is, much less a non-medical person. It would be refreshing if more "people on the street" knew about POTS. I am on a mission to explain it to as many people who seem interested. I get tired of explaining it though and just say "I pass out when I stand up too long"Karyn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MomtoGiuliana Posted December 1, 2006 Report Share Posted December 1, 2006 My mom is on her church board of directors. Another member of the board has a daughter with EDS and POTS. It does feel like a small world when these connections occur.Katherine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lukkychrm42 Posted December 1, 2006 Report Share Posted December 1, 2006 Yeah, I think something similar has happened to me only once... but I'd think that because of the research and doctors in certain areas (Toledo!!!) that some communities will be more familiar than others... people going to where the doctors are, and then those lucky enough to live nearby, those areas will have a higher concentration of DIAGNOSED people.
