Dr. Diana, both a doctor (therapeutic optometrist), and a recovered POTS and ME/CFS patient, offers help and hope for POTS, Dysautonomia, Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, Chronic Fatigue, Chronic Lyme, vascular abnormalities, Fibromyalgia, and Multiple Sclerosis. Dr. Diana is now working full time at POTS Care.
Saw my GP this week. She said that the triangular shape was a normal brain shape, then said she doesn’t understand much about MRI’s. I pointed out the empty sella, and showed like images from a radiology education website. She said it must be normal or the radiologist would have noted it. We had some circular reasoning where we debated whether benign finding would be reported on the MRI summary if they were considered benign in 99% of cases. She wasn’t convinced, but referred me to a Rheumy specialising in EDS, a geneticist, no to have an echocardiogram. Baby steps!

“Dr. Diana will always hold a very special place in my heart for her selfless devotion to helping everyone, not just the Ehlers-Danlos community. I hate to think what my life would be without her insight and guidance.”
