My Dystonia Diagnosis (Focal Foot Dystonia)
from Runnah: Running Cape Cod, Massachusetts, and Beyond! · host Julianna Coughlin with The Falmouth Running Club and Falmouth Community TV
In this video, I share my recent dystonia diagnosis. I talk about what dystonia has been like for me so far — how it’s showing up in my body, how it’s intersecting with my running, my injury recovery, and my day-to-day life, and how I’m learning to make sense of something that still feels unfamiliar and evolving.This isn’t a polished or clinical explanation. It’s lived experience. It’s me naming what I’m noticing, what I’m struggling with, and what I’m holding onto as I learn how to move forward with more information than I had before.I’m sharing this not because I have answers, but because I know how powerful it can be to feel seen — especially when your body is doing things you didn’t choose and can’t fully control. If this resonates with you, if you’re navigating neurological stuff, chronic illness, injury, or uncertainty, I hope this reminds you that you’re not alone in it.Thank you for being here. Thank you for listening. And thank you for holding space for stories that don’t always fit neatly into before-and-after narratives.If Runnah has ever made you feel less alone, that means everything to me.📧 Contact the show: [email protected]📺 More episodes: https://www.youtube.com/@runnahpodcastYou’re still you.
