Whether they helped you or one of your friends or family or even if you just read about a medical professional who has experience with, or specializes in, vertebral artery dissections please email me with a name, location, and contact information (phone, email, website, etc.).
2. Tell or ask Medical Professionals about VAD: Simply spreading awareness about VAD will help others in the future. It could be that the person you ask or tell about it will think of it when trying to diagnose someone with the odd symptoms that VAD can cause.
3. Tell Medical Professionals about VertebralArteryDissection.com and ask them to contact me.
4. Tell Your Personal Story: Read other Personal Stories of VAD's and share your personal story on the site. I will not use your last name or post any kind of contact information. Your story might help someone else cope with their own struggle with a vertebral artery dissection.
