Carolina Functional Neurology Center - www.carolinafnc.com
We are passionate about helping people achieve optimal neurological health. As functional neurologists, we specialize in the diagnosis and treatment of neurological, metabolic and autoimmune conditions. We treat concussion, traumatic brain injury, dysautonomia, migraines and headaches, thyroid issues, vertigo and dizziness, and neurodevelopmental disorders.
Functional neurology uses the concept of neuroplasticity, or the brain’s ability to change based on environmental, emotional and physical stimuli. Functional neurologists combine this with their extensive knowledge of the nervous system to find avenues to activate the brain and create long term positive changes to reduce patients' symptoms with lasting effects. Our doctors take a holistic approach to healing, looking at the patient as a whole, finding the root cause of their symptoms and treating them without drugs or surgery.

Vasovagal Syncope Patient Interview with Madi | What Did The Patient Say? | Episode 39
Are you able to recommend a functional neurologist in the Poughkeepsie NY area? I don’t drive & you are too far from me
Girl you're my hero! My turn!
How did you do this what was the process for this treatment
I know you can’t give treatment or medical advice but I don’t know what else to do at this point. At 34 I became pregnant with twins, around 26 wks I contracted COVID, I had to receive monoclonal antibodies to help me fight off the virus but it attacked my liver and caused a PROM for baby A. I was hospitalized for the remainder of my pregnancy and delivered at 31 wks. Around 5 months postpartum I’ started having issues sleeping and it seemed as everyone started winding down for sleep I would become more alert, when I did sleep I would stop breathing(now diagnosed with sleep apnea and having to use CPAP) and have drenching night sweats, and then it seemed just like I no longer could understand time anymore. Ppl used to know me for being early, incredibly punctual and dependable, now it seems like no matter how early I start getting ready for something I can never be on time. 5 mins could feel like what I think 45 mins feels like and vise versa. I have no idea how to fix this and it gives people the perception I just do not care about things or make things a priority to be on time. Who can help and where can I start to get help?
Yay!!!! ❤ 👏
Yes, please provide reason how that was identified as root cause and treatment and how everything else was ruled out. What caused her issues? Infection? Vaccine? Concussion?
What?!?! Those are beautiful numbers that I could only dream of having.
Audio, closer to mic please
OK so what's your solution??
My wife and I are almost certain that I have POTS because nearly all my symptoms are textbook POTS symptoms. The worse is the brain fog and the increase in symptoms when it's warm. I missed a ton of work during hot spells because I simply couldn't function. Heart racing when I got out of bed, dizzy, head feeling like all my thoughts and senses have to pass through waxed paper, like everything is fuzzy. I didn't have my watch or pulsometer when my symptoms were at their worse and I hadn't heard of POTS then, so I didn't do the test. Now I'm having mostly good days but the brain fog is almost always there, with it getting much worse on bad days; and I usually fail the TTT at home, though my pulse goes up by 20-30 BPM when I stand, so I can't imagine how much it goes up on really bad days. So far I've had a stress test, EKG, and worse a halter monitor for a week, and lots of blood tests. Nothing is showing up with any of those tests. Doctors keep saying "anxiety", though my only anxiety is wondering what is really wrong, and how it is affecting a job I love.
Dysautonomia has been so hard to live with. I have Dermatomyositis which has caused Dysautonomia. I was diagnosed 5+ yrs ago. But before that I was seen and they knew I had an autoimmune disease but was not to worried to find the actual name. I was told by a doctor at Dartmouth so a great hospital that the name of which disease did not matter because they treat the symptoms. But I just could not continue with my terrible symptoms. But within 2 weeks of getting a new rheumatologist I had the diagnoses of Dermatomyositis and Dysautonomia. I get the sinus rhythm tachycardia. I get stuck in the hospital when it happens. I take a high dose of Metoprolol twice a day. I have a million more terrible symptoms. The other hardest is the skin and muscle diseases and weakness due to the disease I have. I take like 18-20 pills in the morning plus just as many at night. Plus having Dermatomyositis causes blue/purple skin. Everyone thinks my blue cheeks and blue arms are due to the Dermatomyositis not the my oxygen wearing due to a
Mold expert docs advise against glutathione , say it can make worse.
What did you do to help it?
I have severe episodes of light-headedness and brain fog on standing, but my heart rate and blood pressure are mostly unchanged. Sometimes I get tachycardia but not always. I'm diagnosed with pots and MCAS. What type is this?
How do you test to figure out why the brain isn't getting enough perfusion?
I wouldnt get treatment at your clinic as im 37kg im doing my damndest to get to 6 stone ten a weight appropriate to my very tiny frame. Id a seizure after one of my migraines its not always diet related. Wasnt reeponding to painkillers kept getting worse and worse then passed out in front of two people. Without my preventor i was 4 stone sonething and my heart was failing. Dont judge based on appearance. People like that are why od no treatment for 20 years and was in agony every 2 days. My bones stopped growing in childhood. Thats not a reason to accuse the person of starving themselves. I did have anorexia in my teens and my curreny weight is from dieting far roo long but i can eat maintenance now.That seizure did limit my independence and i have to be careful i dont suddenly fall. I eat plenty.
I had the long version of the weapon of biological warfare. April. '23 have recovered to about 70-75% of what I was before. May never fully recover. All this thanks to the director of NIAID.
How this happens?
Hello! What would be the “normal” heart rate increase on a pulse oximeter? Just for comparison. Thank you for your time
So did she have an issue constricting her vagus nerve that you relieved? Hard to think of any way a chiropractor vould get such results for a POTS patient. Some info about what you actually did would have been nice.
I have found that most pcps are not competent enough to even understand this connection.
Did u go to cfnc?
Afferent baroreflex failure. Desperately need more information on that please.
That was a really great explanation. Thank you Christopher. It is International Ataxia Awareness Day on 25th September and awareness of this life changing condition needs to be shared. You didn’t mention “idiopathic ataxia” which means doctors simply do not know what causes the ataxia and within this category will be some caused by gluten! We do need to be aware too of processed food which often contains hidden forms of gluten but not disclosed on the label. As you explained time is critical for irreversible brain damage and the more people and doctors know about this the better. Thank you.
What is the orthostatic training and “no-nos” she talks about?
I am really happy for you!
This is what happens to me down to a T
This was Gold, tu💞im. In ri, w a host of problems from covid3 times, see 11 Drs who treat 11 body parts.. no integrated care, which you provide.. dysatomia is just one of long COVID s host of problems, will follow u, any suddestions for similar treatment near me.. was pre med , studied this years , retired educator, 31 years.. 🙏💞😻
Cant eat anything, nauseated yet hungry.Nothing sounds good to eat , burning stomach, diarrhea that goes on forever. Sensitive to everything, hot cold temp changes fluctuating either too hot or cold , I was freezing at night in August 80 degrees outside. Migraines , sore hips n knees, chest pain, no endurance or energy to walk let alone go to work.This has been 2yrs going , got me suicidal, like i woke up and living in hell..
Yes, I feel the same way!
😮😮😮
This was clickbait 🙄 there’s no remedy in the video
What solutions to reverse it ?
You’re not stupid they did this on purpose. You were tricked fooled taken advantage of just like in life when someone does you wrong. Except this is at the level of life or death.

How do you get diagnosed with lung Covid and what is the treatment and are there any class action lawsuits or any repercussions from Covid?
Try nicotine gum or patch.
Have you tried cholestyromine?
Leg numbness. Don't forget
I’ve had all of these problems and noticed difference in myself when I got my second vaccine which made me sick for like a month. I don’t know if I can attribute it to that but it’s definitely a possibility. My energy levels are quite low and it feels like I can’t use my brain properly at times and focus or process and I feel stupid and feel like something is off, memory issues are normal with me growing up with adhd but sometimes even when something is mentioned I don’t recognize that it was previously which I usually do. I do suspect I may have pcos though and I have adhd so I wonder if it’s just that it’s gotten worse. I’ve also been experiencing a lot of joint pain in my wrists and ankles and have to use braces or prop and ice or warm and use pain medication, and it’s hard to hold things or walk at times because I feel pain or like it’s gonna fall off or I’m gonna end up hurting my wrist or ankle. I haven’t gotten COVID as far as I’m aware I just noticed a difference in myself post vaccination and I’ve been experiencing symptoms of my adhd and pcos prior but I didn’t experience what I experience now which is brain fog, low energy levels (I was laying in bed most days for at least a year, maybe year and a half) and joint pain.
I'm 29 and i have this, doctor told me
Nobody trusts
What could be done for the cerebellum in such a case?
Does shoving a sharp object into the temple help with the pain? Serious question.. Because a lobotomy is now on the board..
Nice explanation.😊
Why don’t you put what you did to help her? :(((
What does out of state treatment look like? I live in Ohio.
My brother: why are you walking like that. Me: AHHHH
I have a question no one has ever answered me: if you were diagnosed with dysautonomia with pots but your blood pressure is fine, heart sometimes is fine other goes up to 160, blood sugar is fine and you get an attack were you feel like passing out, trembling, dizzy, etc. And you get this at least 2 times a day at the same hours. What is it?
First of all you definitely need to define your terminology much more specifically. In other words, what does "fine" even mean to anyone?? Well nothing really. And same with something else you said that I cannot even see right now. In fact I can barely see anything right now. How fun is that one. Having some intermittent blurry POTSY type visual disturbance right now and hard to even look stuff up now let alone type in this big box that keeps hopping around. But you have got to come up with some much more clear data, do some more research, notate what your data comes out to when you perform your NASA lean test, read/watch David Goldstein's 26 part series on dysautonomia which i still haven't even finished and I've had syncopal episodes beginning in middle school so around 60+ years ago so a LOT. Also try watching Videos put out by Lucinda Bateman @ Bateman-Horne center. They focus on MECFS/LONG COVID but being dysautonomias are always part and parcel with them, that's a heck.of a lot if what they talk about. But good at least you included your heart rate at least and thst's pretty high btw. Just make sure you know more than your doctors because as a general rule unless you travel halfway around the country for somebody super special you're really not gonna find much information out there. Also check out Lauren stiles on Dysautonomia International and you could find a specialist on that website and a group as well. Maybe POTS Patients Pretending They're Doctors is Still Around. But actually they will pretty much just kick you right off of that one if you don't know enough so.make sure you feel.pretty proficient before you try that one Sounds like this is all new and overwhelming to you? You're welcome to friend me on FB since I like having friends with similar problems. I'm the one who was raised by Monkeys.
I'd say it sounds like POTS without any OI nor air hunger but with other concomitant symptoms that has never progressed to any true syncope so basically lucky but unlucky??
You would like need an Apple watch of some type to even know when your BP is dropping since obviously if you're feeling pre-syncopal like that it Simply has to be. It is widely divergent however just how much differently different people feel with their different bps. Mine must just really plummet to nothing when I pass out because once when already hospitalized they were abkut ready to code me when I was actually sitting up and felt fine and they called in a team.of blp nurses with their sphygmos and they were all reading palp for my diastolic but then they finally heard something but only called it a 65 over 26.
Note if it's during or right after a meal, if you eat a meal at the same time and it happens. There's a thing called postprandial hypotension, maybe look into that.
"Unfortunately" I never passed out; therefore it took me 13 years to get the diagnosis.
It's B complex deficiency!!!! I had CD. I had literally every B complex deficiency in the book and in severe form (with the sole exception of the butterfly rash, absent almost certainly because my photophobia was so bad I never went outside during the day)' ataxia was one of the worst. I could not walk across flat unbroken pavement without continually tripping over my own feet! I started taking B complex. 100mg/day did nothing. My urine was still clear like water. I upped the dose 100 MG/day until my urine turned yellow again, held it at that dose for a few days, reduced it 100mg/day and it stayed yellow kept it there, if it turned clear went back up and so on. Within two weeks all about B complex deficiencies started to improve rapidly and by the end of the third week when my urine finally turned yellow at 2000 MG/day all deficiency symptoms had totally disappeared. In fact all the areas that had been problems were now working far better than ever before. I was not only back to normal function but considerably better. Celiac ataxia is due to being vitamin deficiency which can be corrected in very short order by vitamin supplementation without having to wait for the intestinal lining to recover! I had been 20% below normal lien healthy weight but had only recovered a small part of that before my vitamin deficiencies were gone. In addition I strongly suspect that the vitamin supplementation (I also supplemented all of the vitamins for which I had deficiency symptoms) enabled everything including the lining of my intestine to recover much more quickly than normal. (Total elimination of all processed foods probably had a great deal to do with that because it is the only way that you can reliably exclude all gluten) Stop listening to all of garbage spewed by pharmaceutical representatives and start thinking VITAMINS! It's not "the most expensive urine in the world", it dear God is one of the most effective therapies in the world!
