2023 Dysautonomia, Physical Health and Fatigue - Dr. Peter C. Rowe

EDS ECHO Summit: Fatigue Virtual Summit, October 21, 2023
This talk will discuss the importance of orthostatic intolerance (OI) as a common and treatable contributor to fatigue. We will discuss practical methods of identifying OI in the office setting, then move on to how to treat OI, emphasizing medication management as well as some conditions to consider when the expected improvements are not forthcoming.
Dr. Rowe is a Professor of Pediatrics in the Division of Adolescent and Young Adult Medicine at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine. His clinical and research interests have focused on medical conditions characterized by chronic fatigue. He has directed the Chronic Fatigue Clinic at the Johns Hopkins Children’s Center since 1996, where he is the inaugural recipient of the Sunshine Natural Wellbeing Foundation Chair in Chronic Fatigue and Related Disorders.

    Great video. Thank you. Low Dose Naltrexone stopped my Hyperadrenergic PoTS same day. I am off it now with continued improvement and am on Xolair for the food allergies and intolerances (14 ER visits). Been diagnosed with Long Covid. Diagnosed with Ehlers Danlos 35 years ago. Also have Alpha Tryptasemia, A2-B3 and Central Heterochromia. Basically a mutant. 😂 Hope this helps someone.

    Is this still a valid diagnostic path if the symptoms aren't constant? Some days there's little to almost none while other days the person can have tachycardic episodes even fully at rest?

    Enough but not too much hydration and iron supplementation and check for h pylori and SIBI. If the gut is inflamed or compromised any stomach acid can set off the vagus nerve at the bottom of the esophagus and cause tachycardia. Bovine colostrum healed my gut fast after antibiotics. Try two pillows and maybe famotadine or other such medications if needed. If you wake up with it try sitting up and drinking water. Good luck.
