We're acclimating my #ParkinsonsPlus from #winter to #summer, & it takes a toll on me.

Without going into too much detail, but I'm always open to #AMA, my #autonomic system, the things your body does on its own, is shot.

Season changes means adapting to new stimuli, like heat, allergens, etc.

Reactions to stimuli includes passing out, dangerous blood pressures, heart issues, etc.

We're slowly introducing my body back to the new season, adjusting meds, etc

Although #RSV is a serious #health issue, this RSV #ad by #GSK promoting their medication is disruptive in the home and also causes auditory issues for me and others with certain health issues and it needs to get pulled off the air, esp local TV stations

Imagine this going off randomly in your home, esp in surround sound with #auditory triggers with your #autonomic disease. #Marketing #TV #Advertising #neuroscience

In #autoimmune diseases (like #Sjögren's), #dysautonomia can be a result of #autonomic #neuropathy
In COVID-19, dysautonomia can be a result of the virus's impact on the ANS.

Part 3 of the Scientific American article “Long COVID Now Looks like a Neurological Disease”

"Dysfunction of the #autonomic nervous system can cause #POTS resulting in a racing heart beat with sitting or especially with standing, fatigue and even bowel or bladder issues. Additionally, POTS may be associated with post-exertional malaise (PEM), or exhaustion after routine activities such as walking, thinking or talking on the phone"

Part 2 of the Scientific American article

“#LongCOVID Now Looks like a Neurological Disease,” discussing dysfunction of the #autonomic nervous system, #PosturalOrthostaticTachycardiaSyndrome (POTS), cognitive dysfunction, also known as “#BrainFog”, and other neurologic symptoms of Long COVID. The autonomic nervous system travels is responsible for unconscious functions such as the regulation of the heart beating, breathing, sweating and blood vessel dilation. "

"For now, it is a compelling tool that individual API designers should be experimenting with. But, given the unpredictability of availability and pricing, it is too soon to declare how ChatGPT fits into an overall design lifecycle."

Such a joy & relaxer. It does something for my #health to have such as great nurse like Sissy

This is a Two-fer hashtag toot

Nothing major pharmaceutical wise, just things that make you poo and pee, blood pressure medications & meds to keep other automatic things my body doesn't do now working #ParkinsonsPlus #MultipleSystemAtrophy

Viral AI-Written Article Busted as Plagiarized

"as Kantrowitz very clearly lays out, the article was a blatant copy of his own, in terms of specific sentences as well as overall message and structure. "

#dreamschematic by Brian Tohill #art #lineart #fineart #autonomic #fediart

Interesting, but beyond my ability to understand fully.

Still, I wonder why they did an active stand test vs a tilt table test. Wouldn't this miss lots of cases of neurally mediated hypotension/delayed drop in blood pressure?

Also, I hope I'm using the #MedMastodon tag correctly. I hope it's okay to use it to tag any medical info, not just posts for or about medical professionals.

"Evidence of moderate to severe #autonomic #dysfunction was seen in 66% of #PASC patients in our study, independent of hospitalization status, suggesting that autonomic dysfunction is highly prevalent in the PASC population and independent of the severity of acute #COVID-19 illness."
