My aunt is currently under Myhill.
She has been abandoned by her GP ( reading between the lines it looks like a psychosomatic belief) and there are zilch specialist services here and very few consultants wanting to take responsibility for anyone with ME.
My aunt had severe palpitations - 2 rides in ambulances, monitored and discharged when ecg was normal. No follow ups. This was when she was slipping into severe, before she was completely bedbound.
Myhill has provided a similar service to that described by @Ariel.
She had sleep meds which helped.
She has also improved thyroid function which has increased base temperature
My aunt had a partial thyroidectomy in her early 30s and there is a family history of thyroid problems .
Magnesium has reduced heart palpitations.
My aunts diet was very good anyway , and she had always practised breathing exercises for relaxation . So no room for woo there.
My aunt keeps an open mind and has a decent bullshitometer.
The sad thing is that these simple things should be within the wit of our health system. The fact that basic work ups seem to be unobtainable leaves people with the choice to seek help elsewhere ( and hope the bullshitometer is good) or have no help at all.
My aunt has OI issues like many . There are no POTS specialists at all in Scotland according to POTS UK. No cardiologist with an interest even if she could actually go anywhere. And a GP who was clueless .
So many symptoms can be alleviated to some degree and life improved IF you can access the referrals
My aunt can't and Myhill has helped with symptom relief with genuine empathy.
She dosnt entertain the woo.
