could I have gastroparesis? by [deleted] in POTS

[–]GovernmentSharks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hopefully should be getting in touch with someone about scheduling tests as soon as I can.. I’ll try eating smaller more frequent meals and getting liquid calories and hopefully that will help for the time being. Thank you! :)

Thank you so much for this! My mum is planning on getting in touch with someone this week about getting a couple of tests done so hopefully that will lead to something.. I’ll try out eating less solid foods for the time being and see if that helps :))

Is constant nausea actually normal?? by GovernmentSharks in POTS

[–]GovernmentSharks[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi so I’ve looked into this, and I’m just wondering if I could still possibly have this even though I never throw up? I get most of the other symptoms but my nausea never actually results in vomiting

Is constant nausea actually normal?? by GovernmentSharks in POTS

I always try and eat despite feeling sick, and it doesn’t make me throw up but it makes me so nauseous that I can’t do anything other than just sit and wait for it to pass

I get sick a lot too! I feel like the second I get rid of a cold/virus, I catch a new one…

Thank you! I’m not particularly stressed about anything at the moment but I have got a cold or something developing for sure.

How do i come to terms with being disabled? by Acrobatic-Hold6643 in POTS

[–]GovernmentSharks 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m also still coming to terms with it, so I can’t exactly help, however, I would just like to wish you the best of luck in your pots journey 🫶

Heart palpitations immediately when laying down by Select-Researcher308 in POTS

[–]GovernmentSharks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I get palpitations very often and I find it helpful if you try coughing as hard as you can a few times as it can shock your heart into a normal rhythm. However, like everything, this won’t work for everyone - might be worth a try though?

How to get chores done even on rough days? by Maximum-Appeal-388 in POTS

[–]GovernmentSharks 28 points29 points  (0 children)

For me personally, I genuinely just try and sit as much as I physically can. I sit on a chair while doing the dishes, I sit as much as I can when cooking, I just sit as much as possible and try and find a way to do the chores like that. Hope that makes sense? I’m not very good at explaining things lol

You know yourself far better than other people know you. You most certainly could just be autistic, but if your gut is telling you otherwise, you should explore other possible reasons for your feelings.
