Then there was the active rejection, or forced retraction of research articles that stated the risks of the COVID vaccine as it went against the current narrative at the time.

Where the rate of post covid vaccination myocarditis is 223 times higher than that from all other vaccines combined over the last 30 years. And don’t forget this is only in the reported cases and those that sought medical attention

Vascular Compression Syndromes (VCS) in POTS patients

In my experience, VCS are present in ALL patients with POTS, and are usually multiple.
For the purposes of this thread this also applies to hEDS and trifecta patients as well.

So what is a VCS?
A 🧵

TOS CONT
It occurs when these structures are compressed in the thoracic outlet (the space from the supraclavicular fossa to the axilla) The compression can occur in 3 different areas of the thoracic outlet
1/ Interscalene triangle
2/ Costoclavicular space
3/ Subcoracoid space

Nutcracker Syndrome
When the Left Renal Vein (responsible for returning ~1/8 of the blood volume back to the heart) is compressed bn the Aorta and Superior Mesenteric Artery (SMA). It usually co-occurs with another VCS called SMA compression of the Duodenum (more on this later)

May Thurner
When the Left Common Iliac Artery (which returns all the blood from the left leg and hemipelvis) is compressed bn the Right Common Iliac Artery and the vertebral body.
It also causes symptoms of
-Pelvic congestion syndrome
-Varicose veins in the left leg, scrotum, labia

Can anyone tell me why my feed is full of photos of cats? Not complaining.
