So...I used to enjoy blogging. Before I got diagnosed with Autonomic Dysfunction. If you are saying "What the heck is Autonomic Dysfunction?", you are not alone. I'm still trying to figure it all out and I have it! Some people, even doctors, think it is a "made up illness". I assure you...that is NOT the case! Because it falls in to the "invisible illness" category (also known as the "but you don't look sick" category...and you don't look insensitive, but whatever...), people find it hard to understand. Makes me wish for a broken leg, or something visible! My experience has been that the doctors label you with this disease and throw some drugs at you (if you are lucky) and then they are done with you. Ok, so I get more information on the aftercare of a tattoo or dental work than I do on my new disease? Awesome. No do's and don'ts, no dietary modifications, no nothing?!? So, basically, I'm on my own with the help of my trusty pal Google. So not cool. I decided to start this blog for other people like me, or people like my Mom and my friends who love people like me. Hopefully as I navigate this journey, I can provide some witty (LOL) insights and get advice from you, Dear Reader! Please feel free to leave comments and interact with me :-)
You can check out my old blog www.nikisaprincess.blogspot.com for a glimpse of what my life used to be like and to get to know me...
