Hopefully, this leads to more expanded studies that go far wider. The technology is ready to do this at scale and low-cost, so let's effing go....
The data do not, actually, suggest that. The researchers are suggesting that. Somehow. And they basically completely ignore the patients'...
Anyone else noticing the trend where it's all POTS, and only the tachy part, and the broader issue of dysautonomia is being drowned out entirely?...
