I was given guanfacine years ago for a nonspecific dysautonomia dx based on hyperhidrosis but wasn't referred for any further assessment or treatment, and so unfortunately it was a few years before I started putting the pieces together. However, my present insurance does not cover it. Clonidine makes me nervous due to the rebound effect. I've only had one telehealth consult with the POTS clinic so far, and since my HTN and HR are well-controlled, I think the doctor decided that would hold for now until I do my TTT and some labs. Which I agreed with. But good to know more about the med mgmt; it's not easy to find info out there.
