A Comprehensive Guide to Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome
Written by New York Times bestselling novelist Taylor Stevens, Walking Through Fog: A Life Reclaimed from Autonomic Dysfunction documents a two-year journey through the medical literature to make sense of career-ending cognitive dysfunction, and the quest to figure out how to fix it.
In a deeply personal story originally intended only for family and close friends, Stevens explains in easy-to-understand language the mechanisms through which the same condition that leads to tachycardia and fatigue also drives, among other things, rapid weight gain, glycemic dysfunction, gastrointestinal distress, sleep disruption, vision problems, blood pressure issues, an inability to hold on to water, chronic pain, and severe brain fog.
In hopes that the information that allowed her to put her own POTS presentation into remission might also help others better understand this syndrome and possibly find their own paths to recovery, this research-dense, 370-page book is being made available to the public and is gifted free, no strings attached.
