I everyone. I was recently dx'd with pots/cfs. The dx really makes sense of all the symptoms I've been dealing with for the past 6 years. I've taken the family medical leave offered at work, when I was no longer able to function in the capacity they needed me too function within (supervisor). The pain, heaviness, headaches, brain fog and forgetfulness have taken a toll on my performance, to say the least. My primary care provider suggests I see a homeopathic doctor, as any of the beta/alpha blockers he could prescribe would worsen my symptoms rather than make me feel better. I'm a bit sceptical of seeing a homeopath, as it's not covered under insurance, and with my not working right now, I can't afford to spend money on "possible" symptom relievers.
Has anyone benefited from seeing a homeopath? Has anyone quit their jobs and gone on disability or SSI?
I could use any help/information you might have as I deal with my new dx.
A newby amongst you!
