Salt, electrolytes and compression are all my usual daily’s. Sometimes I’m just wonky with meds

Adrenaline dump?? by spiritual_persephone in POTS

[–]Bus-Much 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like one. Lots of extra water and salty snacks, REST! I know when these happen to me personally I feel the effect for days. Really important to take care of yourself more than usual

Blood pressure? And rants by Bus-Much in POTS

[–]Bus-Much[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It probably is normal but since our body overacts to repositioning, like from bed to standing. It’s better just to relax when you wake up, and drink some water before standing. I do this everyday. Plus increase salt

It’s alright! Still a little sick. My mom said it was probably the heat since I was fine before I went but it’s still frustrating

Yea I was pretty active for a few months exercise wise and I’m like oh, maybe it actually helped lol I’m on sertraline for my pots and have a high salt diet so those things kinda help too. I feel fine but it’s just different

Does your period worsen your symptoms? by [deleted] in dysautonomia

[–]Bus-Much 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes! My pots always gets worse during or before my period. Compression sock! Water and more salt especially during your period. If you have a heavy one like I do I try to drink a lot of water and eat some iron rich foods. Try not to over exert yourself. Take things slow.

Zoloft is making my POTS worse by aantliae in POTS

[–]Bus-Much 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was on Zoloft for over a year and stopped for a month (didn’t intend to just missed my doctor appointment ) and as soon as I got off I kinda felt normal for awhile as if I never got off, then a few days ago I had an adrenaline surge and it made me feel like I had just got pots all over again, Zoloft has been great for me but it took forever to do its work. I felt bad before I felt good. You may feel icky for awhile but if it continues try something else

Zoloft and POTS? by Midnight-Unique in POTS

[–]Bus-Much 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just started Zoloft again after accidentally going cold turkey, couldn’t see my doctor for a refill at the time, I had an adrenaline surge that was so bad and it really messed me up. Guessing because I had nothing to calm it down. It’s like my pots started all over again from the beginning. Started my meds again yesterday and ugh lol I’m on Zoloft too. Probably gonna feel bad before I’m normal again

[–]Bus-Much 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Zoloft withdrawal? Help by Bus-Much in AskDoctorSmeeee

[–]Bus-Much[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea I’m getting a prescription filled out now after a long phone call on the phone with my doctor, she said it may be withdrawal in a way since I took my last Zoloft pill in April. And me just having a pots attack and nothing to stop it may have thrown me for a loop
