The autonomic nervous system controls everything that we don't consciously think about. This list includes:

heart rate, breathing, temperature control, sweating, gut function, urinary system, reproductive organ function, and many others.

​

Symptoms of autonomic dysfunction underlie health issues with surprising regularity. These symptoms may include brain fog, dizziness, hyperventilation or shortness of breath, profuse sweating, palpitations, feelings of anxiety or panic, intestinal symptoms, sleep problems, and many others.  

​

Have you been blown off by your provider when trying to discuss these symptoms? Problems with the autonomic nervous system are very common and poorly understood. 

​

Why is the autonomic nervous system overlooked by your provider? Because autonomic activity is very hard to measure. It doesn't show up on x-rays or on lab tests. Gene testing doesn't help. Because it is hard to measure, it is typically neglected when a clinician tries to diagnose your problem. This leads to the dreaded phrase: we found nothing wrong.

At Time 4U MD, we do NOT think it's all in your head.

Long covid is the new condition that has brought these issues to the front and center of medicine. Research is suggesting that the syndrome of Long Covid is due to autonomic nervous system dysregulation.
