The MEN1 Mosaic
#32 - MEN1 Symptoms or Just Life? How to Tell the Difference (Lizzie - Solo Episode)
Are your symptoms a direct result of MEN1, or could something else be at play? It’s a question so many of us face, and in this solo episode, I’m breaking it down. After more than a decade of living with MEN1, I’ve learned that not every ache, fatigue, or issue can—or should—be blamed on the condition. But how do you know what’s what?
I’m sharing:
- What top MEN1 specialists say about distinguishing symptoms
- My personal experience with symptoms that felt like MEN1 but weren’t
- Why mindset and lifestyle play a bigger role than we realise
- The one question I ask myself before jumping to conclusions
If you’ve ever been told “it’s not MEN1-related” but still felt something was off, or if you’re constantly questioning whether your symptoms are serious, this episode is for you.
Are you sure MEN1 can’t be influenced?
When I stopped just 'settling' for symptom management, I began carving a path to somewhere I believed impossible in MEN1: symptom-free, surgery-free, and medication-free. If you’re curious to see how I’m making this happen, join my community here.
