E232:Dr. Steve Smith’s research update on treating pelvic venous disorders (and how it helps POTS and related syndromes) 16 Nov 202401:08:47

Dr. Steve Smith's most updated research suggests that stenting or embolizing dysfunctional pelvic veins may improve a wide array of POTS symptoms and related syndromes in patients with pelvic venous disorders/congestion.

Dr. Smith is now retired and publishing research, but in his long career as an interventional radiologist he noticed that many of his Pelvic Congestion Syndrome patients had POTS and related syndromes...which often got much better after treating the bad veins.  Could poor blood flow be at the heart of some of these syndromes and symptoms?  Dr. Smith makes the case.  He reviews several studies that now show POTS and many other symptoms (and syndromes) improve after treating the veins with stents or embolization.  His studies now show improvement in patients across 5 different centers, at 3-, 6- and 12-month follow-ups, and across numerous symptoms.  Dr. Smith discusses his hypotheses about how venous disorders may underlie some cases of POTS, fibromyalgia, ME/CFS, migraine, brain fog, IBS, vulvodynia, ADHD and more.

Below are links to his published studies:

Imaging findings of pelvic venous insufficiency in patients with postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome

An online survey of pelvic congestion support group members regarding comorbid symptoms and syndromes

Improvement in chronic pelvic pain, orthostatic intolerance and interstitial cystitis symptoms after treatment of pelvic vein insufficiency

E231:Lumia tracks blood flow to the head with Daniel Lee 10 Nov 202400:35:37

Engineer and tech founder Daniel Lee created the Lumia to be a personal wearable device that fits in the ear and measures blood flow to the head, along with several other measurements and a phone app.  This allows POTS patients, researchers and others to track how their activities, foods, medications, and other environmental factors are affecting blood flow to the head and symptoms of POTS.  He explains how it all works and also shares interesting findings revealed by the Lumia in their research partnerships with major academic centers and also from POTS patients wearing the Lumia in normal life.
