Advocating for the Invisible: A Candid Talk on Chronic Illness

Talk Dizzy To Me

Dr. Abbie Ross, PT, NCS and Dr. Danielle Tolman, PT chat with Shruti Shivaramakrishnan. Shruti lives in Ontario, Canada and her career background is in patient engagement through strategic content and fostering validating communities. Her Instagram community, Chronically Meh, aims to support people who live with chronic illness, and my work with GetCopayHelp assists patients with affordable prescriptions.

Shruti has had migraines since she was a child, with occasional vestibular symptoms. After contracting COVID, the vestibular aspect became more pronounced and has caused ongoing health issues. The unpredictability of her symptoms is frustrating and makes them challenging to manage. While she is frustrated by the lack of effective treatments and general lack of understanding, she tries to focus on the hope advocacy brings, everyday glimmers, and live life fully - one breath at a time.
