My name is Jamie.  I am a former attorney but am currently, and unfortunately, a disabled, chronically ill patient.  I write to not only share a bit of my story, but also to share my vision for a less cumbersome, more efficient solution for numbing your chest port.
Since 2017, I was diagnosed with several debilitating and rare autoimmune diseases that make every element of my life difficult.  It started with severe chest pain in late 2017.  Heart problems run in my family, so I saw a cardiologist.  I had just gotten engaged, passed the bar, bought a house, and landed a job at a wonderful law firm.  The cardiologist did thorough testing but ultimately concluded that nothing was wrong with me – aside from anxiety – and put me on medication.  After this, I continued to decline – my chest pain got worse. My hair started to fall out, I had severe rashes, muscle weakness, nerve pain, issues breathing, and debilitating fatigue.  I could not walk to my mailbox without my muscles shutting down and I was using a walker. Â
