From people who came through it

  • โ€œFor anyone new to this: I've been there. For me it was in 2023. POTS and fainting in the queue at the shop. That was my life. I went on holiday in the summer and actually relaxed. It changes. It really does. Keep going, even slowly.โ€

  • โ€œHi, you. I was where you are nearly four years ago. For me it was infusions every eight weeks. I've started painting again. Hang on.โ€

    Rajesh Tj ยท been through chronic illness
  • โ€œTo whoever needs this: This time last year I was exactly where you are. The worst part: a diagnosis after seven years of being told it was stress. I've started painting again. It comes back so slowly you don't notice until one day you do. Praying for you.โ€

    Jess from Melbourne ยท been through chronic illness
  • โ€œTo whoever needs this: I was where you are eighteen months ago. A blood test every month, every single day. My kids say I'm back.โ€
