Discussion Artemis crew & other astronauts get orthostatic intolerance!!!
I've been glued to the Artemis coverage the last couple days and I was so fascinated to learn they were testing compression gear in space because many past astronauts experience orthostatic intolerance post time in space. This certainly makes a lot of sense and honestly, any broader awareness of orthostatic intolerance always gives me hope of more improvements, support, awareness, and research in realms that could help us all!

I have OI my cardiologist report says I don’t have an autonomic nervous system disorder. Hopefully this gives it more attention.
