Thank you. I had most of the testing mentioned in the John Hopkins inf. Do you know of any new medication that is available for Dysautonomia patients? I’ve been on Venlafaxine and Pyridostigmine since 2016. These 2 meds seemed to me to lose their effectiveness. Over a period of 2 months I totally stopped taking these 2 drugs. Local Neurologists aren’t much help. The University of Kansas Hospital was great in 2016. It seems like my health started deteriorating about a year ago with Dysautonomia symptoms I could no longer control. The Mayo Clinic did not offer an appointment for me. I think my current local Neurologist didn’t handle that situation correctly. Anyway, any feedback would be appreciative. Richard James
