We would love to pass on dysautonomia-related questions to our medical advisors. These questions and answers will be published in our next newsletter. If you would like to submit a question, please READ ALL THE INSTRUCTIONS FIRST. Start by doing the following: - Do not ask for medical advice. Please don't ask for help for your specific situation. We cannot forward those questions to our medical advisors because they aren't your personal physicians. These questions put them at legal risk. We can forward questions that are about dysautonomia in general. For example, it would be acceptable to ask "Can menopause and hot flashes worsen POTS symptoms? Why or why not?," instead of "I am in menopause and have POTS. Do you think my hot flashes are making my POTS symptoms worse?" Please read the recent newsletter for examples of acceptable questions. - Please submit your question with your first name and state of residence. - Please submit your questions to janie@dinet.org Occasionally, the doctors are unable to answer a question from one of our DINET members. You may not see your question answered. Thank you!

DINET needs a Newsletter Designer! This volunteer would be responsible for creating our newsletter by assembling articles into an appealing newsletter format. If you are interested, please email Janie at janie@dinet.org. Thank you!

DINET is looking for a Newsletter Designer. This person would be responsible for receiving each quarter's newsletter articles and formatting them into a professional-looking newsletter. Please email janie@dinet.org if interested. Thank you!

DINET needs members who would be willing to share their dysautonomia story for our Meet the Member newsletter column. These stories are VERY inspirational to others, as we can all relate to the struggles that accompany getting diagnosed, properly treated, and coping with dysautonomia. Wherever you are in your dysautonomia journey, you are able to encourage others! If you are interested, please contact Janie at Janie@dinet.org Thank you!

DINET needs writers for our quarterly newsletter! Our writers can either contribute regularly, writing an article each quarter. Or, you can contribute articles as you are able. Our newsletter articles are about any topic related to dysautonomia. They can be educational or encouraging, personal reflections, or research-based. If you are interested, please email Janie at janie@dinet.org Thanks!

You can ask a question of our medical advisors by sending your question to janie@dinet.org. Be sure to include your name, state, and an email address in your email. Sometimes our advisors will contact the person who submitted the question directly. For those who aren't familiar with this service, I should mention that these questions and answers are a part of our Doctor Q & A column in DINET's newsletter. Please do not ask for medical advice, or for advice specific to your own health issues. They can't give you advice specific to your health, so I am not able to submit questions of this nature to our advisors. But our medical advisors are great resources for more general questions regarding dysautonomia (questions that would benefit other patients as well). Also, the medical advisors can choose to pass on answering any particular question, so your question may not appear in our next newsletter. Here is our most recent newsletter, with the Doctor's Q & A column: http://dinet.org/2013%20Fall%20Newsletter.pdf

Would you like to inspire, educate and encourage others by sharing about your dysautonomia journey? We need DINET members who are willing to be the focus of our Meet the Member column in the newsletter. You can share about your life before dysautonomia, your journey to diagnosis, finding treatment, finding a doctor, recovery, what motivates you, etc. You don't need to share your name if you'd rather be anonymous. Feel free to look over Meet the Member articles in past newsletters: http://dinet.org/2013Winter.pdf http://dinet.org/Summer%202012%20Newsletter.pdf If this interests you, please email janie at janie@dinet.org, or send me (Thankful) a PM.

Would you like to inspire others by sharing your dysautonomia journey in DINET's Meet the Member column? Please send me (Thankful) a PM, or an email at janie@dinet.org, and we'll put your story in our upcoming fall newsletter. Thanks!
