@drjonathanchung: What can astronauts teach us about dysautonomia? Thr effects of space are known to cause muscle atrophy but it also affects our perception of gravity. Astronauts have been known to experience Orthostatic intolerance following extended time in space, and a study from 2015 shows a strong correlation with dysfunction of the vestibular system.
I was put in the Gyrostim after getting hyperpots from mold poisoning and I was spun upside down and backwards rapidly a bunch of times to reset my vestibular system and it worked! Really cool stuff

ive always talked abiut my ear issues and that my ears "water" and my right eardrum flutters constantly. not have tinnitus for years and no answers and no hesring loss
my pots and dizziness and nausea even looking around is getting worse

Is POTS and dyautonomia very common now after the pandemic? Or has it always been this big of an issue and we are just now seeing all of it due to social media?

i’d be curious if astronauts have craniocervical instability because that’s what was causing dysautonomia for me

they've shown that muscle waste from ME/CFS isnt entirely caused by bed rest btw im sure you can find the study somewhere if you look it up, its recent

This is so cool. I wonder how this works with the amount of pressure that water causes when swimming? Just thinking they could be related

Okay but what if ppl with dysautonomia go to space

Yes, but if you put me (and some unknown percentage of the population) in a space w 100 recycled air, recycled our water (maybe better than my well w ag run off actually); fed me the food from the space station, I would also show (now-it would be “increased) signs” of dysautonomia irrespective of wether you controlled for replicating gravity they experience there. Note the biodome (is that what it was called?) also- not a successful outcome. I’d love to see the data and the questions they asked to determine why it failed (2x was it?). When we remove ppl from the natural effects of biological systems w which we are inextricably intertwined a species we will respond. But at this point we’ve normalized so much harm, can we suss out what’s “new” from the dysfunction we have inherited in order to formulate real insight, or is that too risky to the economic trajectory that relies on space and military science being put into modern living? Like processed foods…Call it stress, call it mutations; but please don’t continue to call what we measure functional adaptation. We’ve been gaslit on the compounding factors of actual toxic accumulations for too long. Ppl w long term dysautonomia don’t have access to gold standard health care. There is no pension to rely on while struggling to manage daily with a NSystem that, largely from high levels of exposure, renders ppl incapable of regulating the most basic functions of metabolism. This population has been fighting sometimes for decades to be seen and heard, tossing an astronaut work out at ppl w ME and mitocondrial dysfunction is another form of medically induced abuse for many ppl who have as yet to manage exposure and other forms of lifestyle management and support. Not saying that’s what is happening in this post, I’m just asking science to DO BETTER and ask patients to determine funding and req funding come from entities w interests in real health discoveries not economic investment. Ppl are worth investing in. The returns of which we can only imagine bc the access to obtaining individualized support of improvements to air quality alone, hasn’t been properly explored much less quantified.
