Dysautonomia Update 4 - Specialist Visit

Hey Corrine, I hope if you see this it will give a few answers to the comments you've left recently.
The garden is looking great. I was able to get a lot done of the space of a few months when the weather was cool enough and my daughter was a great help to me as well. We have a youtube channel. Just look for emsapowell and you can see all our vids on the garden, family, pets, and dysautonomia there. Kiah now has a new penmate, Bandit. He was my mother in laws dog and she couldn't keep him anymore and we couldn't see him go back to the shelter, so we took him! He's an awesome dog. Kiah is jealous and bothers him constantly when we are around, but when we're out of sight they are best pals...lol We have 4 cats and 4 kittens (almost 4 weeks old) and another litter on the way! I'm going to lose my mind before we get them weaned and homes found...lol Gotta get them fixed this year for sure so this doesn't happen again! We also still have the hamster, although I am wishing he'd go on to hammy heaven...lol And we got a turtle last week. My daughters are HUGE animal lovers, so they are loving our new place and all the freedoms they've aquired that apartment living did not allow!
As far as my blacking out. I was expecting it as it got hotter. My body just does not accept or tolerate the heat and it seems to jumpstart and kick my symptoms into overdrive. We are working (my dr. and I) on getting the right meds, but even with the meds I have problems. The video from my appointment on Monday may offer some answers, so I have new Dr.'s to see. I wish I had insurance, but we'll just keep praying and trusting in God and everything will be fine! I hope you are having a great day and PLEASE do hit me up on Skype when you can. Again, my name on there is emsa_powell.
