Orthostatic intolerance (OI) describes a group of circulatory disorders whose symptoms are characterized by a dramatic drop in blood flow to the brain when people are sitting for long periods or standing still. It is often associated with other acute issues, such as substantial drops in blood pressure, tachycardia, dizziness, fainting, or other long-term problems, including ME/CFS and Long Covid.
In his new book, Living Well with Orthostatic Intolerance: A Guide to Diagnosis and Treatment, Peter Rowe, MD, (Director of the Chronic Fatigue Clinic at Johns Hopkins Children’s Center and member of Solve M.E.’s Research Advisory Council) provides an overview of OI and its causes, diagnosis, symptom management and more.
In this installment of our author spotlight series, Solve President and CEO Emily Taylor talks to Dr. Rowe about his indispensable new guide for those diagnosed with the disorder, their families, and physicians.
Guided by decades of research on managing and treating OI patients, Dr. Rowe will provide illustrative case studies to help explain the disease and answer questions from attendees.
