Thank you, powerlifting, for giving me the strength to keep going. I don’t know what I would have done without this incredible sport. Thank you all for your fantastic support 💜

As we approach our Awareness Day on October 20th, I would like to take a moment to acknowledge Mast Cell-Related Diseases. To show your support, I ask that on October 20th, you wear purple 💜

What is MCAS?

Mast Cell Activation Syndrome, known as MCAS, is a condition that causes mast cells to release a large amount of chemicals, called mast cell mediators, into the body. In a healthy person, these cells play a crucial role in healing and protecting the body. For someone with MCAS, however, these cells are released too often, causing severe anaphylaxis, constant fatigue, AFIB heart rate, breathing problems, low blood pressure, hives, hot and cold flashes, brain fog, blurred vision, loss of feeling in extremities, and so much more. Mast cells are blood cells that live longer than normal cells, growing in your bone marrow, gastrointestinal tract, skin, and airways. In excess, it can make anaphylaxis feel like life or death, and simple tasks feel like a marathon.

Let’s help spread awareness one step at a time.

If you have any questions at all or would like to share your story with me, I am more than happy to listen. I’m incredibly grateful for the community I’ve built through my platform, and I’m excited for what’s to come. 💜🤍
