Does anyone here have POTS or know anyone with it?

Muddling along.

Hope all is decent in your world too.

Such an easy target,

but,

It is a real thing.

Best wishes, OP.

I have lots of pots in my electronic bin....

I’ve got pots

Which is just a general name for a group of like symptoms.

So mine started when I was 30 and I’m a dude which happens less to men than women. I’ve passed out the first time I thought I was just dehydrated, then it kept happening. Went to doctors a nurse practitioner said “sounds like pots”. Which is generic name for the symptoms not what’s actually wrong with you. So after another dozen trips to doctors for various tests to rule out other illnesses finally a tilt aka table test. I passed out and diagnosed with pots. And all they could do was give me recommendations on how to deal with it. You can go through hundred more tests to figure out the root cause but it’ll be hundreds of doctor visits.

Mine isn’t so severe I just have learned to deal with it the last 10yrs.
For me dehydration is biggest trigger, getting up too fast or walking outside into a hot summer day can trigger it. And if I’ve smoked weed it’s much easier to trigger while I’m stoned. I’ve also learned when I start feeling dizzy to get flat on the floor.... because falling hurts lol. And it helps the episode to pass just be carefully getting back up sometimes it’ll feel like your ok until you try to stand again.

Staying hydrated and salt intake is the most important factors for me.

Hey Rasen, hope you're well, not seen you around for ages! You had your test results back yet?
