After a high-intensity workout class left her hospitalized from exercise-induced rhabdomyolysis, Kami’s persistent symptoms led to a second opinion and a diagnosis of pectus excavatum—a condition that affects the heart and lungs by compressing the chest cavity.
Hear Kami’s firsthand account of her journey, including her symptoms of locked "T-Rex arms," swollen muscles, and nausea, and the missteps in her initial medical care. Discover how a cardiologist uncovered the real issue and why advocating for yourself can be the key to better health outcomes.
Whether you're an athlete, trainer, or someone who exercises, this episode dives into the lesser-known risks of intense workouts and what the fitness industry often overlooks about rhabdomyolysis. Don’t miss this powerful story of resilience, education, and self-advocacy.
