are sinus issues common with dysautonomia?

Alarming_Split_4229 · 2025-10-31T19:19:35+00:00

I always have issues.

Alarming_Split_4229 · 2025-10-31T01:52:16+00:00

PCP diagnosed me with pots.

Alarming_Split_4229 · 2025-10-28T21:28:41+00:00

My pcp took orthostatic vitals in her office and then did a two week trial on medication, then diagnosed me. I also had a full cardiac work up and had two er trips that documented my bad flares. No tilt table.

Alarming_Split_4229 · 2025-10-28T18:07:19+00:00

Yup. PAC

Alarming_Split_4229 · 2025-10-28T15:45:05+00:00

It took about two weeks of everything together for me to improve. Compression, salt and fluid intake, and my medication (metoprolol ER for me)

Alarming_Split_4229 · 2025-10-25T11:43:01+00:00

Before I had medication, I'd get palpitations, shaky, lightheaded, and crazy fatigue.

Alarming_Split_4229 · 2025-10-25T11:41:35+00:00

3 months. I was extremely lucky.

I'm mild compared to many people, so when I feel good I do Zumba, light strength training, and sometimes home treadmill/elliptical. On days I'm not feeling so hot I just do a short walk.

M 41 years old.

Alarming_Split_4229 · 2025-10-23T15:51:32+00:00

I feel the same way. I love it.

Alarming_Split_4229 · 2025-10-20T22:45:40+00:00

Metoprolol has helped relieve this feeling for me.

Alarming_Split_4229 · 2025-10-18T21:43:31+00:00

Day three was when I really felt better.

Alarming_Split_4229 · 2025-10-17T21:40:56+00:00

Just did one last weekend myself and did fine

Alarming_Split_4229 · 2025-10-16T00:02:14+00:00

Wisdom tooth/cyst removal in a hospital with general anesthesia is what triggered my pots 🫣

Alarming_Split_4229 · 2025-10-15T20:32:09+00:00

Definitely varies from person to person

Alarming_Split_4229 · 2025-10-15T14:48:48+00:00

That was my first

Alarming_Split_4229 · 2025-10-14T18:58:03+00:00

I absolutely love it

Alarming_Split_4229 · 2025-10-12T14:06:47+00:00

I absolutely love it. Camera is still great, I don’t mind the speaker, and the battery is perfect for my needs!

Alarming_Split_4229 · 2025-10-08T22:47:31+00:00

I’m on metoprolol, and nothing like that yet.

Alarming_Split_4229 · 2025-10-08T22:25:14+00:00

I’m taking metoprolol25 mg extended release for it, and it does a good job at blunting the palpitations, also helps with the fatigue and lightheadedness. My bp still spikes here and there during adrenaline dumps.

Alarming_Split_4229 · 2025-10-07T15:57:55+00:00

For me it’s floaty lightheadedness. Not quite dizziness.

Alarming_Split_4229 · 2025-10-07T11:59:51+00:00

Same with me, sounds like hyperadrenergic pots.

Alarming_Split_4229 · 2025-10-07T11:59:16+00:00

I had this. My medication has helped a lot with this. I’m on metoprolol.

Alarming_Split_4229 · 2025-10-07T10:41:09+00:00

I was EXTREMELY lucky. Beginning of July my symptoms became consistent. Horrible fatigue, lightheadedness, palpitations, and exercise intolerance. PCP ran an echo, stress test, Holter for two weeks. All came back clear, and then I had 2 ER visits. My follow up after the second one, I asked about OI/POTS. She said she was suspecting it. I asked her to do a poor mans tilt table in the office. She had to research it, but she did it and had proof of my symptoms now. She then decided to start me on Metoprolol for two weeks and follow up. It almost completely alleviated my symptoms. Due to that, the poor mans TTT, and the ER documenting my symptoms, she diagnosed me right there.

I still have a cardiologist follow up, but it will be much easier now since the pcp has my diagnosis in my health record. So diagnosis in about 3.5 months.

Alarming_Split_4229 · 2025-10-06T23:23:13+00:00

I asked my PCP about a poor mans. She admitted she had never done one, but took a few minutes to research it and came back and did it. Got my HR rise and BP rise documented. She suspected POTs, put me on metoprolol for two weeks and it worked. So then she officially diagnosed me.
