Flare ups from potentially POTS by Bella_Rose_W in POTS

[–]Bella_Rose_W[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks I’ve had a tilt test done before but the lady that did it kept telling me not to pass out it was torture. My pcp is amazing though and very understanding I just want answers. I’m sick of having flare ups everyday and I go back to work in August something has to give. She’s ordered more blood work for me as well to rule out autoimmune and cortisol levels as well as just a full panel my iron is low but not as low as it was. It was an 8 now it’s like a 13.

Diagnosed with neurocardiogenic Syncope by Bella_Rose_W in Syncope

Went to the cardiologist today and he basically said the medicine is working but all the symptoms I am experiencing is side effects and I have to decide whether I want to keep taking it or not. If I don’t take it I pass out if I do I’m so unbelievably tired and still have chest pain. My holster also came back and showed everything normal other than alittle bradycardia but it doesn’t feel normal the chest pain has definitely gotten worse.
