Can you imagine going from a university athlete to a bedridden chronic illness patient in the span of a year? That's precisely the journey our guest, Jason Herterich, had to navigate when he was diagnosed with fibromyalgia and POTS. Jason talks about his life-altering experiences, the challenges of living with an invisible illness, and the importance of joy and community support. Get an intimate glimpse into his story, that's sure to pull at your heartstrings and inspire you.
Ever wondered what living with chronic pain is like? Jason gives us a candid picture of life with fibromyalgia, the physical and mental toll it takes, and the various treatments he tried to manage symptoms. We also discuss the mental health struggles he had to grapple with, and the significance of seeking support in such times. This episode takes you into the world of those living with chronic pain - their battles, their trials, and their triumphs. You'll walk away with a greater understanding and empathy for those living with invisible illnesses.
Jason's journey, filled with challenges, was also marked by a significant turning point. He regained his health and independence through integrated care and a mindful approach towards life. Beyond speaking about his health, Jason shares his journey as a disability advocate and his life post-diagnosis, emphasizing the power of active decision-making and connecting with joy and purpose. This episode isn't just about a life-altering diagnosis; it's about finding purpose amidst pain, and the undying spirit of resilience.
