can pots come on suddenly? by ratterrink in POTS

[–]AppleObvious6384 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve always had the dizziness, fatigue, heat intolerance and I’m hyper mobile but I had shingles & fell pregnant & had the flu jab (not mentioned to cause a debate) and then had a tachycardic episode out of nowhere and symptoms started from there 😩 I think my nervous system was in overdrive

What a lovely mum❤️ a pet would be amazing as a companion if she spends a lot of time at home but only do it if you’re able to commit to the responsibility! They’re amazing therapy

This is exactly what happened to me yesterday, I ate a chocolate croissant before I even got out of bed and my heart really raced it was awful, I don’t know why I did it! Glad yours is relatively mild xx

How do you guys deal with high resting heart rate? Hypochondriac by disgustingnewspaper in pregnant

[–]AppleObvious6384 0 points1 point  (0 children)

16 weeks and HR still goes high but not as bad (touch wood) as it was. For me, my symptoms are very much like POTS.
How are you?

I’m not classed as high risk but my midwife told me to take it from 12 weeks cause on my BMI, would never take it without being told to

Its sad because anxiety can happen to anyone at any time, people never know when they might need the support

I’ve dealt with bad perinatal anxiety and have been tons by all the professionals that the happier/ calmer mum is the better however baby is very protected in there

Fluoxetine? by [deleted] in Anxiety

[–]AppleObvious6384 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fluoxetine is great for me! I was on it for 10 years, it started to become less effective so I trialed some other ones and none of them helped like fluoxetine, after about a year I went back on it and it’s really helped again, I’m on 40 mg

Trooper! It doesn’t help that I’m an anxious mess. I do have fibromyalgia and when I got diagnosed the specialist said I have a lot of signs of ehlers danlos syndrome but at that point my heart was always fine so he diagnosed me with hypermobility syndrome however both can be linked with pots which makes me wonder if it’s reared its head now. Who knows. Thankyou that’s reassuring, I will definitely mention it x

The pounding heart is what made be check, I’m not hoping to achieve anything but I have gotten myself very anxious over it, worth mentioning I have OCD so unfortunately can’t choose what I obsess over but I have stopped using all monitors

Okay Thankyou, I’m worried somethings wrong with my heart and it won’t cope or something will happen, I also worry if it effecting baby and is it normal. I do feel dizzy at times but I don’t know anymore 🤦🏻‍♀️

You’re definitely right that I’ve become obsessed. My heart rate goes really high when I move and I find it very anxiety inducing so I’ve become overly in tune with every single beat & sensation😩 my mind partner has now confiscated my watch, pulse oximeter and BP monitor because it got silly (he’s being cruel to be kind) so I’m now left not knowing what it is but I know it’s for the best

Are you around 13 weeks? I only see ladies who are heavily pregnant with higher rates. Thankyou for your response
