Peter Rowe - Orthostatic Intolerance in EDS/HSD

Published 2019-01-03
Peter Rowe discusses orthostatic intolerance in Ehlers-Danlos syndromes and Hyprmobility spectrum disorders, in a webinar from December 19, 2018. Learn about how the circulatory system responds to upright posture in EDS, and how circulatory problems like hypotension, recurrent fainting, and rapid heart rate can influence the severity of symptoms (especially fatigue, lightheadedness, headaches, and cognitive fogginess) in EDS. This webinar discusses how to manage these problems with diet, postural maneuvers, and medications. The slides are available in PDF from bit.ly/2TBj1sZ

    Wonderful webinar, I learned so much! Thank you to Dr. Rowe & The Ehlers-Danlos Society for this important information. I will be on the lookout for the print out as well
  • Thank you for this. I have Ehlers Danlos and Hypermobility, dysautonomia (positive tilt table test), etc., and a trigger event of getting hit by a semi-truck at 65 mph on 12/15/2010. All of the pieces are finally fitting together after seeking answers since childhood.

    Thank you so much for sharing this informative webinar. As someone diagnosed with EDS, POTS and MCAS I have found this information extremely helpful and look forward to sharing it with my GP and trying to implement the non-pharmacological solutions.

    This was amazing! I hope to get my pcp/ np to listen. They are clueless on how to help me.

    As a certified holistic health coach who loves learning about medical conditions and investigating natural wellness solutions for them, how would I be invited to attend these webinars live?
