Send us a textWhat if your “mystery symptoms” weren’t random — but actually connected?In today’s episode, Cody sits down with Dr. Diana Driscoll, an optometrist, researcher, inventor, and patient advocate who turned her own medical mystery into groundbreaking discoveries that are changing lives.After years of struggling with unexplained dizziness, gut issues, fatigue, and “just anxiety” diagnoses, Dr. Driscoll uncovered key links between the vagus nerve, neurotransmitters, and the body’s stress response — and how they drive conditions like POTS (Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome) and other “invisible illnesses.”Together, Cody and Dr. Driscoll unpack:•What POTS actually is (in real-world language).•Why so many women are misdiagnosed or dismissed.•The misunderstood role of the vagus nerve—and why “stimulating it” might not be the fix you think it is.•How gut health, neurotransmitters, and the autonomic nervous system all connect.•Why SIBO treatment often fails — and what her research discovered about healing it naturally.•The powerful comeback story of her son, who went from years out of school to living a full, healthy life again.•Practical steps for self-advocacy, testing, and finding real answers.If you’ve ever felt dismissed, dizzy, or defeated by your symptoms, this conversation will bring clarity and hope. You’ll walk away with a new understanding of your body—and a reminder that you’re not broken, you’re just waiting to be understood.✨ Mentioned in this episode:Dr. Diana Driscoll’s work and resources: WebsiteHer book The Driscoll TheoryInstagram“You’re not crazy, you’re not broken — your body is communicating.
