Today I wanted to share with you my POTS (Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome) story. POTS is a form of Dysautonomia that causes blood pooling in the feet. It causes dizziness, fainting, heart palpitations, fatigue, muscle pain and aches, migraines, GI issues and stomach pain, as well as other symptoms all over the body. This is my story.

3 years ago this November 2021, i was "healthy" other than epilepsy and AMPS/CRPS, and one night at 1.30 am, i thought i was having a heart attack! My bf at the time put his apple watch on, and my HR was at 200BPM!!!!!!!! 😮😮😮😮 i got diagnosed with pots in the emergency room as my ER doctor's wife has pots. Yet im still to get a "formal" diagnosis all because i have CPTSD and generalised anxiety disorder. Finally now in march of 2024, im FINALLY seeing a cardiologist for a formal diagnosis because after 3 years, i found a dr who believed me 😭❤️

By chance did you take CV shots? I had several heart issues on 3rd day of my guys second shots. I didn’t take shots because my autoimmune overreacts, as it did in crowds that summer, ER every time I flew!!! Stones concert with old people all ‘vaxed?’ Was ready for an ambulance, but too embarrassed! Dizzy, SOB…

Thank you so much for your story. I’m in highschool and I struggle with the symptoms of pots and Eds. I came close to losing all my credits because of all my sick days and I began to regard myself as lazy and just simply depressed and that the pain and fatigue wasn’t as bad as I perceived it. I love to hear that there are people that share this experience.

It took me a long time as well to get a diagnosis and was wrongly diagnosed a bunch of times over a period of about 10 years.Its an awful process but we all get through it somehow.hope you are doing well & staying safe ❤

You sound a bit like me. My POTS episodes have a spike in heart rate, but then it crashes to where my heart has bradycardic pauses for several seconds at a time. Have they screened you for the various types of Ehlers Danlos syndrome? It turned out that my fibromyalgia was actually hypermobile type Ehlers Danlos syndrome.

@@eltonmaragona9014 I've experienced difficulties with talking, due to my POTS. Are you getting out of breath, slurring your speech, or just getting brain fatigue from talking? Talking while seated is much better than talking while standing. Medications can help. Some decent POTS medications include Ivabradine, Mestinon, Guanfacine, or Clonidine. It might take time to find which works best for you.

May I ask when you started having issues? I started 3rd day after my partner got his second CV ‘vaxine’….pfir brand. Throwing up, dizzy, couldn’t breathe. Large crowds that summer, aka airports and airplanes I was always at ER. Bed bound with crps, up to bathroom? Pulse 125. Take trash out? Pulse 175! Scary! Blood pressure 149/199….throwing up 3 yrs later. I never took a shot, boyfriend finally stopped ‘boosting’.

I also have fibromyalgia - that was my 1st diagnosis about 12 years ago. To me, fibro sounds like a term they use to just give the symptoms a name - like colic for a baby...no reason why they cry, but here’s a name for it. 2019 I was real sick and had to call out of work, which I very rarely do. After that, the fatigue and exhaustion, along with brain fog and other symptoms, took a big hit! My doctor kept saying it was just anxiety - I have GAD I KNOW what anxiety feels like and that wasn’t it! I made an appointment with a local cardiologist myself, and that’s when I got my POTS diagnosis! It felt so relieving to finally have some kind of answer, I nearly cried in her office! Thank you for sharing your story!

I never pass out either, I go into the shakes and then seizures. Thank you for sharing your story. I had bulging discs,pinched nerves,peripheral neuropathy ,and Celiac disease,so I was already seeing my general Dr,a physical therapist, and a neurologist when the presyncope and the seizures started,at this point he had already take ct scan, x rays,MRI,blood work and 2 EMGs. I wound up in the hospital after having a seizure my legs wouldn't work to hold up my body, so from that point in the hospital it took 6 months to find POTS after he tested me for every autoimmune under the sun,then he did EEG,more mri,more blood work,EKG. Finally I thought he was just frustrated and over it and was giving me busy work when he told me to go home and take my vitals for 30 days in the am and pm take down numbers laying,down, sitting up and standing up. So basically an at home tilt table test. When I went back after the 30 days,he took all of 2 minutes looking at numbers and he said you have POTS. Evidently my HR and sometimes BP will go up by 40 points with each position, BP sometimes just goes up by 20 not 40 but the HR is the main thing they look at . That's not my full long story,just a condensed version, jt I think its neat and interstate to hear other people's chronic illness stories.

I get those twitches and seizures as well, although my POTS medications have nearly eliminated those incidents. Have they ever run you through the Beighton hypermobility test and screened you for Ehlers Danlos syndrome? POTS was the first sign that I have hypermobile type Ehlers Danlos syndrome as an underlying medical condition and a unifying diagnosis to all of my health issues.

@@heathertowe6280 When people can't take beta blockers, often Ivabradine works well.

I'm curious to know what your heart rate is after about 20 min Of standing like without the socks? i have been trying to get diagnosed with this condition for years but mine is more mild I believe or could just be inappropriate sinus tachycardia. I do the pool man's tilt test by checking my heart rate with a wrist cuff and mine is usually around 110 after just standing for a while.

You are so young and have loving support. You’re going to be great! ( And it does get better 😉, I’m 46 now) the part that hasn’t gotten better AT ALL, is people telling me “it’s just in my head”, “get over it”, “be more positive “… I wouldn’t want them to feel what is is for me… but I don’t think the day they will believe in this is coming any soon. 🙏🏻

I have orthostatic hypotention which i found out after a year and a half of hell being in and out of the doctors office. This started out of nowhere for me after getting covid and hasn't stopped since. I got the diagnosis from a tilt table test/ treadmill stress test. If you feel like you're going to faint when you go from laying to standing or when you're working out or being outside in warm weather ask your doctor for these tests! What helps me: compression socks up to my knees, drinking a gallon of water a day, eating enough salt to be able to hold that water, never work out without eating or drinking water first. I was also given medicine that raises my blood pressure but i only take this when i know for sure im going to faint if i dont take it. Hope this helps someone.

I have POTS and Ehlers Danlos syndrome, and have had two colonoscopies. There were no complications, but they had to be careful since EDS increases the risk of perforations and other issues. If you have POTS, but not EDS, just make sure they know all of the medications you're on. The prep work will be the roughest part, so you might want to request IV fluids because of your POTS.

You should look into supplementing B vitamins (B1, B6, B12), as well as Vitamin D (D2, D3). Along with these, Magnesium, Zinc, Vitamin K2, Calcium & Potassium should also be taken. I've read testimonies of many folks suffering with this diagnosis who have had their lives transformed practically overnight when they began taking Vitamin D3 just by itself. There are some Dr.'s here on YT that give valuable information on treating this with much safer, natural methods such as the ones I mentioned. Dr. Berg is one that comes mind, off the top of my head.

I’m on oxygen now but all my test come back normal but I’m still not getting better. I looked up POTS & all my symptoms are pointing to that.

Wow! Your poor husband because you couldn’t cook or clean’ ?? For better or for worse. That is the vow you both took. You work full time as well. This isn’t the 1950’s anymore.

Are you saying I should be working full time? Even though I have multiple chronic illnesses that make it difficult for me to do simple things? And I'm a mother to 3 children five and under?

I think most of this can be tied down to diet then. " I can eat whatever I want". Nobody can eat whatever they want. Without paying a consequence.

I've tried every diet you can imagine. From vegan to carnivore. Currently I only eat meat... Still have POTS. I'm sure diet helps some people, which is great! But others might still have issues even if they eat right. I wish that diet was the answer for me. I am so happy that you found something that works for you but never assume that just because something works for you that it works for others. We are all on our own journey.
