Welcome to the Editor’s picks for this week! This week got a little crazy, but that’s how we like it.
What do you think about medical marijuana? Do you watch MasterChef? If you have anything to say about these two subjects then do we have some fun posts for you!
We also have some tips for treating POTS through lifestyle changes and a highlight of a PW patient contributor whose blog is helping so many rare disease patients!
Happy Friday and enjoy!
