Dysautonomia / Orthostatic Intolerance to be on TV TONIGHT!!!

From NDRF site, this second segment is to feature Linda Smith. She says they mention dysautonomia and orthostatic intolerance. So do not be upset folks if they do not mention "POTS". All one needs to know is one as ANS dysfunction. And that word NEEDS to get out to doctors and the general public. Linda has no idea how it will be edited as she has not seen the tape.

I am posting info here that was posted about the program.

http://health.discovery.com/tv-sched...122489.29206.3

The following is quoted from their web site:

"Mystery Diagnosis
The Woman Who Kept Falling Down
TV-PG

Little Avry Conley of Texas has violent bouts of vomiting and diarrhea from the day he's born; doctors try to ease his symptoms, but they only get worse. Linda Smith experiences strange symptoms, including blackouts, after she hits puberty.
