11/18/10 Thankful
Today I am thankful for my diagnoses. After many, many months I finally have my answers: POTS and Ehlers Danlos Syndrome. I am thankful that the phase of figuring out what is wrong with me is finally over. I am thankful that it only took me 11 months to get a POTS and EDS diagnosis since it often takes others years to be diagnosed with POTS and EDS because there is not much known about these disorders. I am thankful to be entering the second phase of this journey which is figuring out a plan of attack to learn how to become functional again and manage POTS and EDS. I am thankful to have the opportunity to educate others about these disorders and help spread awareness. Tonight, I am a tired girl. I’m an emotional girl. But I’m a thankful girl.
