Cate’s POTS Journey: Chiari Surgery, CSF Leaks, EDS & Rebuilding Life

Cate’s POTS Journey: Chiari Surgery, CSF Leaks, EDS & Rebuilding Life

In this episode of Let’s Talk About The POTS Life, Cate shares her experience navigating POTS alongside Chiari malformation, CSF leaks, EDS, and multiple complex complications.

What began as headaches and athletic injuries evolved into years of surgeries, overlapping diagnoses, and periods of profound disability. Cate walks us through how her symptoms were missed early on, how deconditioning worsened her condition, and how finding the right care team changed the trajectory of her health.

Today, she lives independently, works full-time, and is training for her second marathon. Her story is a powerful reminder that progress with POTS isn’t linear, but with individualized care, movement, and the right support, meaningful improvement is possible.
