    Episode 7 - The Hidden Toll of CVS Turns into Action with Nina Hellebakken Hagen of CVSA Nordic

    Welcome to Episode 7 of “Episodes,” the official podcast of the Cyclic Vomiting Syndrome Association (CVSA). A trusted source for patient stories, medical insight, and meaningful advocacy on all things Cyclic Vomiting Syndrome (CVS). In this episode, host Blynda Killian (CVSA) talks with Nina Hellebakken Hagen (CVSA Nordic Leader and Norwegian contact person) about the often unseen mental health toll of living with Cyclic Vomiting Syndrome. Together, they explore the emotional impact of navigating a condition that is frequently misunderstood, dismissed, or not believed, and what that can mean for patients who are already enduring significant physical suffering. As the conversation unfolds, they reflect on how validation, awareness, and connection can play a powerful role in changing that experience. With International CVS Awareness Day (March 5th) just behind us, they consider what could happen if each of us chose to take one small action. Nina also shares how her own determination to better understand CVS led her to build CVSA Nordic, helping create pathways for patients and families to access reliable information and support more easily. A few minutes of awareness could help someone find a diagnosis, access care, or feel seen in a way they may never have before.
