For years, Angie has been living inside a body that feels like it’s fighting itself from every direction. She’s navigating a cluster of complex, overlapping conditions — POTS, Small Fiber Neuropathy, Fibromyalgia, Lymphedema, Long COVID, autonomic dysfunction, Hypocapnia‑related cerebral blood flow issues, and more — that contradict one another and make treatment incredibly complicated. Some medications she was prescribed in the past weren’t appropriate for her diagnoses and caused setbacks she’s still trying to recover from.

Every day is a negotiation with pain, exhaustion, dizziness, neurological symptoms, and sleep deprivation. She has seen countless doctors, tried every option available to her, and pushed through more than most people will ever understand — yet she has made almost no progress. Her quality of life has steadily declined, and her symptoms have worsened to the point that she’s becoming genuinely concerned about her ability to keep working in the future.

Angie doesn’t have anyone else to depend on. The thought of losing her stability while managing all of this alone is terrifying. The increasing brain fog, dizziness, and cognitive slowing affect her every single day. Even her vision is now no longer fully correctable with glasses because of reduced blood flow to her brain. These changes aren’t just inconvenient — they’re life‑altering, and they’re happening faster than she can keep up with.

Her medical team believes she needs a higher level of coordinated, specialized care. That’s why she’s trying to get into the Mayo Clinic — one of the few places equipped to evaluate and treat complex, multi‑system conditions like hers.

While insurance may cover parts of her medical care, the costs of getting to Mayo are significant. This fundraiser will help with airfare, lodging, transportation, meals, and the out‑of‑pocket medical expenses that add up quickly. Your support gives Angie a real chance at answers, relief, and a path forward.
