I’m a recruiter, it’s not a forever job for me (very stressful, not what I wanna do long term), and I have a BS in Psychology. My leaving grades from school were just meh, 3.4 I believe with all my transfer credits (took me 7 years, 2 semesters withdrawn, 3 transfers to finish school bc I was dealing with the sudden onslaught of my symptoms brought on after I had Mono).

I’m in a much better place lately and have been thinking to the future. I always wonder what I could do that I’d enjoy and would make an impact. My experience as a patient with hEDS (took me 12 years to get a diagnosis of this POTS and sleep apnea) has always made me think about becoming a medical professional of some sort and specialize in my condition.

I see a chiro locally who has EDS and specializes in network chiro, is very EDS aware and one of the providers who’s made the biggest impact on me. I don’t know what all is out there though that requires less schooling than say, a medical doctor. I also don’t wanna deal with bodily fluids.

Any suggestions? It would need to offer schooling programs that can be completed part time (online for some would be great), and I’d need to keep working to pay for it (I am maxed out on undergrad loans, embarrassingly enough).

Hit me with your ideas!! What medical professional has helped or impacted you most?
