About this listen
In Misdiagnosed for Miles, Tammie L. Robie shares her eye-opening journey as a competitive marathon runner battling an undiagnosed medical condition. For two decades, Tammie endured debilitating symptoms, including uncontrollable hypertension, chronic headaches, heart palpitations, and bouts of depression and anxiety, all while striving to maintain her passion for running. Despite seeing numerous healthcare professionals, her condition remained a mystery. Drawing from her personal journals and detailed medical records, Tammie recounts the relentless pursuit of answers that finally led to the discovery of primary hyperaldosteronism—an often overlooked cause of hypertension that is more common than once believed, yet still frequently underdiagnosed. Through surgery, she found the cure she had long sought, transforming her life and health.
This memoir not only chronicles her personal battle and ultimate triumph but also serves as an educational tool for patients and healthcare providers alike, highlighting the importance of accurate diagnosis. "Misdiagnosed for Miles" is a compelling story of perseverance, hope, and the journey toward reclaiming one's health.
