CHRONICALLY HEALED: How Kiki Overcame Illness POTS and Lyme Disease: Marijuana and the Grace of God!

After being sick for 10 years, I am now alive healthy and thriving!
My healing journey was non-linear. Watch my full story to get the most out of what I learned from living with and overcoming a chronic illness.
I was diagnosed with Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS aka Dysautonomia), Lyme disease, and Babesia.
My symptoms were feeling faint (chronic pre-syncope), low blood pressure (hypotension), low blood volume (hypovolemia), nausea and stomach pain, chronic fatigue, insomnia, anxiety, social anxiety, cold hands and feet (cold extremities), sensitivities, brain fog, TMJ, neck pain, and more.
The treatments that helped me were:
- Biofeedback therapy (InnerBalance by HeartMath)
- Jugular Venoplasty (Transvascular Autonomic Modulation surgery)
- NUCCA Chiropractic
- TMJ Orthodontic Treatment
- Paleo Diet • Paleo Diet for Lyme Di...
- Supplements • Supplements for Lyme D...
- Vitamin IV Therapy • IV Therapy for Lyme Di...
- Medical Marijuana THC
BUT MOST IMPORTANTLY, none of these treatments would have helped if my heart was not open to receive healing. Spiritual and emotional health are interconnected to physical health. IT WAS ESSENTIAL for me to be healed spiritually before I could be healed physically.
As I grew closer in my relationship with Jesus, I grew closer to his healing. He healed my soul and strengthened me to be the overcomer God created me to be!

This hit really close to home for me. I was healed from POTS and a thyroid disorder. And just as you describe it, life on the healthy end of the spectrum is beautifuuuuuuul. I love the Bible verse you referenced in the end “god has blessed you to bless others” gotta remind myself everyday of that now. Here’s to educating others and healthy living! ♥️

Really well made video and amazing testimony! I have Pots as well and I am slowly getting better but could use some prayers if anyone reads this. Your story is really inspiring and encouraging. I wish you all the best.

[@dc_talk22]

Hi, thanks for the video! This is your only video that I can't share for some reason. Are you able to make it shareable?

[@ChronicallyHealed]

I don't think I can make it shareable! It was flagged as restricted because I talk about medical marijuana.

[@dc_talk22]

@@ChronicallyHealed interesting. Must be an American thing.

This is so hard to watch, done a lot of things you’ve done, I’m too complex for all drs, lot of similarities but differences, drs have quit on me, refused me, treated me horribly, told me I’m too complex, even counselors at this point, I turned to God during this time but instead of getting closer to him, it’s pulled me farther apart and I feel I’m losing my faith thru all this, I have tried natural drs, a few anyway but they quit on me, I have been dx’d with EDS, pots, mast cell activation syndrome, mold, tons of sensitivities to foods and chemicals, more than likely endometriosis but they can’t go into check due to other surgeries I’ve had, endocrine system is now flipping out, ate healthy for 2 solid yrs thru my severe tmj but couldn’t get calories in me or something has been sucking the life out of me, I became dangerously deficient in everything and also became a skeleton in the process, I was forced to eat garbage food again just to get calories, I was starving to death, now that has added more symptoms, not in a good place, this has been a 7 yr journey now, tried to find help thru mmj, no help, chronic pain, very little sleep, bedridden most of time, isolation, getting more depressed and hopeless each day, never been able to connect with god thru out this though I’ve tried, I don’t get it, my brain has changed thru all the trauma of what I’ve been thru, memory has also been severely impaired, glad you got better but I feel there’s no hope for me 😢

[@ChronicallyHealed]

I know it's hard. I've been brushed off by countless doctors and tried countless unhelpful treatments. Keep hanging in there and moving forward

[@pdpode8978]

Chronically Healed not sure how to move foreword when the world is the state it’s in and no Drs will take me, don’t have the support to do this anymore

[@ChronicallyHealed]

Where do you live? Are you apart of any facebook groups with your conditions in your area? They will be able to recommend a doctor who will take you.

[@pdpode8978]

Chronically Healed illinois and been there done that, my situation is complex, yes on groups, yes on drs, I’ve had one leave me or quit on me after another

[@ChronicallyHealed]

That's tough, I know how hard it is to find good doctors, I've had so many tell me to just go home. Most chronic illnesses are very complex. Do you have Lyme?
