In this riveting blog post, I will dive into the perplexing world of Dysautonomia, a condition that might be causing all the fuss. Buckle up, as this is the second part of a captivating five-part series.
Today, I'll unravel a straightforward home test that'll help you figure out if Dysautonomia is knocking on your door.
To kick off this DIY test, you'll need an oximeter, easily available on Amazon. The nifty device measures two vital aspects: the oxygenation of your red blood cells and, even more critically, your heart rate. Dysautonomia is notorious for triggering irregular heartbeats, making heart rate monitoring a must.
Pop the oximeter onto your finger and jot down your heart rate. In our example, it's a cool 71 beats per minute.
Now, get ready to put Dysautonomia to the test with these foolproof steps:
Close your eyes and swing your head back and forth ten times like you're grooving to your favorite tune. Check the oximeter afterward. If your heart rate skyrockets by over ten points, Dysautonomia could be lurking in the shadows.
Flick the lights on and off, stirring up some brain activity. Keep an eye on your heart rate.
If it jumps by over ten beats, Dysautonomia might be rearing its ugly head.
Enlist a buddy to clap loudly behind you, then monitor your heart rate. If it spikes after that startling sound, Dysautonomia might be the culprit.
With these easy-peasy tests, you can transform your home into a makeshift lab.
If you have an inkling that Dysautonomia's got you in its clutches, don't hesitate to reach out to yours truly and take the quiz on my website to gauge the severity of your situation.
If this intel has been a game-changer, do me a solid by liking, commenting, and sharing it with someone you care about.
