Thank you so very much for these tips! I have orthostatic hypotension when standing, after being bed bound for a year due to surgeries and recoveries. I even take medication to try and keep the BP up, but have had too many big drops even with the meds. I watched this video last night. I did my first stand/pivot/sit in the wheelchair today, without any problems at all. The difference? I super hydrated before the PT came, and I usually do the opposite, for TMI reasons! I'm really impressed with your videos, as you break everything down in the small workable steps; great task analysis! (I have a neurological condition, and everything just takes more practice and reps for my brain to remember the steps for even the simplest movements, and your channel is VERY helpful! Thank you!

Hi, great video but a couple of points (I've had POTS for most of my life 😅) 1) dizziness isn't always caused by your blood pressure dropping. It can be caused by your BP increasing too high, or BP stays stable, and only your pulse (beats per minute) jumps up. 2) if you are young (like me ^^) or don't like the look of compression socks you find in a pharmacy, I found two companies that make cute ones: bibi pins and Not your grandma (I am not affiliated with them) 3) drinking fluids is important, but avoiding caffeine and alcohol is important too because they are dehydrating. Talk to your doctor about trying out electrolytes (it helps your cells with hydration) 4) dizziness when standing is not the only symptom you can have. Difficulties with digestion and more dizziness after you eat (that's because your stomach needs a lot of blood for digestion), getting dizzy when you go from laying down to sitting or turning in bed, difficulty with temperature regulation, this includes getting really hot if the sun touches a part of your body, difficulty with breathing (air hunger), brain fog are all symptoms you can have as well (this is not an exhaustive list) If that's the case, ask your doctor about doing a tilt table test. Last but most importantly, wear a fitted respirator (N95) indoors and in crowded outdoors. We are in the second biggest SARS-CoV-2 wave right now, and a SARS-CoV-2 infection is currently the most common cause for this issue, to the point people can't stay standing.

Thanks for sharing! As you said, dizziness isn't always caused by blood pressure dropping. There are multiple reasons. Thanks for sharing more tips 😊

@angelaharris1112 3 месяца назад

Thanks. I will ask my Dr!

@angelaharris1112 3 месяца назад

And I've ordered some N95s.

I wear grippy socks. My pt pushed for it

@yourPTguy 5 месяцев назад

They certainly help prevent falls! My daughter wears them too. Sometimes she's too fast for her own good and the grippy socks help slow her down some, hah.
