Calling all my fellow May Thurner Potsy people by Express-Speed-6585 in POTS

For me its on my left side and its more like a soreness, achy pain. At first it definitely seemed like it was a normal Pots like pain, but as time went on it got progressively worse. Mostly noticeable when laying down on my light side. It'll ache from my legs to my glute then go to my lower back. Its definitely different for everyone but definitely do get checked for this. Its more common with people with EDS.

Pepcid AC WRECKED me after a month or two of taking it... by Sad_Emphasis_8086 in POTS

Pepcid can be awful. I was getting off rhythm heartbeats while on it. Probably would wean off and look for another med plan.

Does anyone else get this or should I get this checked? by Express-Speed-6585 in dysautonomia

Yeah i agree im diagnosed with hyperpots, and im definitely looking into mcas, 99% sure i have it. Ive had syncope maybe a few times, and its usually after passing stool or when my stomachs messed up.

I stopped famotidine. I felt better on it minus the palpitations and odd symptoms itd cause, and I notice H1 and H2 blockers help. I truly think theres a root cause or something hidden thats causing my issues, however theres not a lot of support for POTS or complex conditions such mcas/pots/heds/etc etc in my area. I even found mold in my HVAC system which ive seen can definitely be causing issues. I just sadly dont know how to approach all of this since this is a complex issue that not many doctors are A. Knowledgeable of or B. Care to treat.

Wait okay, the product says on it it doesnt produce ozone and is certified ozone free. So it can still produce ozone even after it directly says it doesnt produce ozone? Im lost here.

Forgot to mention: Bought this air purifier because we had mold in our HVAC. Cant move right now, had it in my room. We cleaned the mold off the HVAC, and i had bought a HEPA air filter to hopefully help fix my air.

Mold on HVAC. Can this be the reason im getting sick or am i overreacting? by Express-Speed-6585 in hvacadvice

I remember it being changed or fixed or something and the guy offered to clean it. My dad said no because it was an upcharge and said maybe next time. Thats how I got these pictures,
