Ray Li
When Ray Li was 10, she started experiencing restless legs syndrome (RLS) and fibromyalgia symptoms. This was soon followed up with sleep issues. Her Mom just thought it was part of growing as a kid. This halted her dance classes and prevented any future high-energy activities due to her being tired and not having much energy.
Ray Li has since also been officially diagnosed with endometriosis, IBS, and more recently, obstructive sleep apnea and RLS. In 2020, due to an undiagnosed health issue, Ray Li was sent to a sleep clinic for a sleep study. This is where she was diagnosed with obstructive sleep apnea and officially diagnosed with RLS. She looks forward to being able to start some sort of treatment soon. Until then, she has the sleep routine the sleep clinic recommended to help her sleep a little better.
Ray Li lives with her amazingly supportive husband in a beautiful section of Canada, surrounded by nature galore. When Ray Li has the energy she loves to be outdoors, especially visiting her dad in the Kootenay region of British Columbia. She has fewer issues and is able to be more active. Ray Li also spends lots of time on Twitter and Instagram sharing her medical journey so that others in the same boat don't feel so alone.
