A recent dance therapy session. So healing for the mind, body, spirit. This balance disorder will not steal my voice. My body, my song, my movement....that’s how I speak from the depths of my soul. I lost balance a couple times, but, that’s not a shocker, I see it as progress not flaws, as I push myself harder each session. I will overcome

First time taking an elevator in a few months.....still a trigger 😩 It was either crawl up 4 flights of stairs under flourescent lights (which is also a huge trigger while I'm under them), or elevator. I was alone, and had to see this new doctor. I had two bad options to start with. Hoping this doesn't put me down for several weeks...🤦‍♀️

    I’m a 28 year old with marfans (my mother and all 4 of my siblings also have it) but we have been ‘lucky’ in the sense that our gene has only effected our eyes so far, I’ve had both of my lenses removed as they were dislocating, but I also have my heart scanned every year to make sure nothing ever goes wrong. Marfans can feel really isolating, but it’s so nice to find others who have the same struggles. ❤

    This video came up out of the blue in my recommendations and I am so glad I watched. My 14yr old daughter Annie has severe scoliosis and will be getting a major surgery in the near future. We both were shocked when we heard your son's name...if Annie had been a boy the name I picked was Cohen!! I've never know anyone who has the name and Annie wishes it was her middle name "just to be cool". Your Cohen is very articulate and it's wonderful to see he isn't letting Marfans hold him back from pursuing his interests. Annie is also very tall, similar to Cohen you wouldn't necessarily know she has any health differences, but she too has to be extremely careful when it comes to physical activities. Thanks for sharing Cohen's story even though I found it after 3yrs. Annie and I hope you're both doing well and in good health.

      @denisia1111 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@beautifullybroken9373 Wow...Talk about things in common. Annie was scheduled to have a full spinal fusion in the beginning of this month. Her orthopedic surgeon postponed it because Annie needs more physical therapy(3 times a week)to build more muscle in her lower back and unlock her hamstrings. I'm so happy it was delayed because her pain isn't a daily issue and the thought of a 6mo-1yr recovery is hard to willing put her through. We recently found out Shriners Hospitals cover the Tether surgery and I don't know if you're familiar with it or if Cohen is a candidate but I highly encourage you to research the procedure. We have a appointment with Shriners in 2wks and are hoping Annie will be able to have the Tether w/a 3mo recovery vs a complete spinal fusion. Plus with the Tether it won't limit mobility so you can still bend and twist.

I definitely live a good life despite it though. I’ve found physical activity , distraction, lots of sleep, and some structure is how I’ve successfully co-existed with this. I journal a lot, cry, pray and see a counselor. I’m still trying to find my way out of this, and still haven’t lost hope. I definitely have moments that are good, and I feel stillness, I’m so grateful for those moments. I’m trying these flare audio ear insert things to help the auditory sensitivity. I try to avoid big triggers. And the ones I can’t avoid I just roll with it. Usually I sleep a lot on those bad days.

    I can absolutely relate darling lady. I too have had MdDS for over 30 years. And have only recently been officially diagnosed. I live in Australia and very little is known here either. I was 23 when I first started getting symptoms and was put onto Xanax and antidepressants which helped...until they stopped working 6 months ago after some very tough, personal issues kicked my ass! I'm now coping with MdDS, VM, Disautonomia and Parkinson's symptoms which may or may not resolve? No body knows? I'm having tests with a Neurology team.. hopefully soon but Covid has knocked our hospitals into crisis mode so the wait for answers continues? I like you, have always been outgoing, fit, and kind to others. But we are all human and don't always understand what others are going through until we're unwell ourselves. Don't be hard on yourself.. you are coping with so much and friends/family/partners and strangers cannot know how this feels for us. It's also hard when you look normal.. but even that is harder to maintain some days. I wish you so much love and healing and thank you for sharing this video with others who are going through the same..and those who aren't. 🙏❤

    Thank you for sharing your story. I sincerely hope that you have found relief and healing since you posted this video. I have been suffering with this syndrome for over 35.years...it all started when I was 23 and began after painful emotional issues and vertigo episodes that left me terrified. Nobody understood this condition at the time.. I was eventually treated with Xanax and antidepressants but recently had symptoms worsen again and my med's are no longer working. I'm now 55 and the condition has worsened.. only further compounded by Parkinson's symptoms which are likely due to misdiagnosis and years of psych medications. Nobody really knows if I will recover.. and knowledge and treatment of both conditions are not readily or cheaply available here in Australia. Like you..I was social, active, empathic, caring and had a great memory. I'm struggling with being single now as my anxiety and depression affected my relationship with my ex fiance and no body understands what we are experiencing or the terror of losing yourself. I feel like I am dying, going crazy and the fight to find inner peace, love and kindness for myself is an ongoing journey. But you are right.. it does teach us about how strong we really are! Please know you're not alone in this struggle. It may be a rare condition but we are united in the fight to be better, more caring, loving and compassionate people. This is just a part of the journey that the Universe set us on...acceptance is so hard but ultimately the only way through. Much love to you. 🙏

    You mention in one of the videos that you're being more active, and how you're doing dance classes, walking, moving, etc. GOOD FOR YOU!!! I totally agree!! I'm very active (fortunate to have been at a low enough level to be active) and refuse to give in to the condition. I actually think it helps me - it's part of that continual neuroplasticity work that has to happen. I am looking into the optokinetic therapy and want to get it going. Thanks for the term, I didn't know what to call it. ;P Best to you!

      Best to you as well! Yes, physical activity has been my escape and try to stay as active as possible. I’m recently injured from an accident and my symptoms have been so much worse because of the lack of exercise. Good luck with OKN. Was a game changer for me. Although I haven’t made much improvement since this. Hoping to go back one day to see if I can get further!

    How are you doing now? Look into rock steady program and neroplasticity..you can change your brain pathways
