How do we feel about this? My cardiologist didn't give me the option to opt out. They just informed me it was about to happen. I can see why it's easier for them to just look at me and talk instead of typing away the whole time but I don't know.. it feels yucky and invasive and bad in general. It seems like it's becoming medicine new standard practice because my therapist just opted in to have AI transcribe our sessions too.

It's been 30 entire days since I last had an episode, a near fainting spell, a fainting spell or any dizziness or brain fog. I've been a normal human being (for the most part) for a whole month and it's felt amazing. This is my longest stable period since I first got POTS at 14. I'll be 30 soon. As I drove myself to TJ Maxx and then to pluck my eyebrows all by myself and feeling like I could run a 5k my first thought was: wow I wish I had friends. I kept thinking how now that I feel good I'd love to take a Potsie out for a nice time in the sun or for a coffee or for a talk. This is the next best thing: it gets better. Keep trying new things, keep doing the right ones and don't lose hope. A weird combination of medicines might one day give you some relief. Best of luck to all of you, may the rest of May be kind.
