Nurse Can Literally Feel Her Patient's Pain
Megan Pohlmann is a nurse with a rare condition called mirror-touch synesthesia. Less than two percent of people have this neurological condition that allows someone to feel another person's physical and emotional pain.
Megan uses all of this to give her patient's the very best care. Because she knows the emotions and, to some extent, the pain, she can truly emphasize and be a patient advocate. But living with MTS isn't always easy. For instance, when Megan is in a public setting such as a funeral, there can be a number of different emotions happening at once.
It can be overwhelming and it's definitely taken her years to figure out how to manage this condition. Now, she's looking at MTS as a positive and uses it every day to better perform her job. What a fascinating and inspiring woman.
