Happy official launch day @thedizzydoc!! I hope you all love this book and the new recipes. This is a great reference for patients who want to know what to eat to improve brain health for migraine. It also gives plenty of edits for personal triggers. https://t.co/GEaOLqtbLq

I'm a little concerned by some of the posts I've been seeing about PRT. They are telling people to say "i'm uncomfortable" versus descriptions of their pain like "stabbing pain". As a woman who experienced a lot of medical gaslighting, doesn't this downplay symptom severity?

I hate to post this, but it seems like there are very few good ENT's in this world. I'm on my 3rd trying to get my son some answers, and it's triggering my bad experiences trying to get diagnosed with vestibular migraine. It shouldn't have to be like this.

Just sold the tiny little bar table from my old apartment where my (now) husband and I cooked so many dinners together while we were newly dating. It's also where we decided to give our relationship a shot. Let it go to make room for all our kids' art stuff.

Worth a read on how exhausting being an advocate for your health can be, and how sometimes, despite best efforts, you still fail. I failed this week, and it has been difficult to accept.

Tell me you've never had a chronic condition that your doctors dismissed or just ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ so you asked for advice from fellow chronically ill folks in order to self advocate for an effective treatment without telling you've never had a chronic condition that your doctors, etc etc....

Surgery center: The cost for your procedure is $5500. Me: But what does that pay for? Can I get a breakdown sent to me? Surgery center: No. Gotta love US healthcare.

PPPD is not a diagnosis of exclusion! It has specific criteria, based on what your patient is telling you they experience. So listen to your patients. And while most of the testing you would do would be unremarkable it doesnโ€™t mean that it canโ€™t be treated! 11/

Loving this strawberry cottage cheese smoothie lately. I got into the habit of just trying to grab snacks when I got busy with the kids and noticed it wasn't great for my VM, so having some good, quick smoothie recipes has been helpful.

Packed with healthy ingredients, this strawberry cottage cheese smoothie is high in protein and also has notes of strawberry cheesecake!

I'm 2 months away from reaching the time I was with Fossil group to the time I've spent building my own business, post chronic illness. I'm my own manager, I promote myself, I give myself accommodations for my illness...it's pretty great. Still need more help though! ๐Ÿ˜‚

If you're looking for a light summer dinner, I love this seared salmon salad. The creamy basil dressing is so delicious with it! A perfect combo for brain health too. ๐Ÿ˜ https://t.co/ll3HfXQa6Q

This healthy but delicious salad is made with crispy pan-seared salmon on top of fresh greens and a creamy basil dressing. The perfect paleo or Whole30 salad!
