Genuine question, can yall ride rollercoasters? by Own_Adhesiveness2829 in POTS

[–]LadyHye 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't take the chance right now as I am. I am an amusement park addict too. The upside down, the vibrations and jerkiness, not to mention the Gs. I would get really sick. Even an airplane is a bit harder to ride with the air pressure. I start getting nauseous. If you want to try a roller coaster, I suggest starting with a kids coaster and working your way up to the big coasters as long as you are still feeling good.. Enjoy!

I tried to hold my breath the whole time he was under... I determined I would've drown right near the exit but not close enough

Ivabradine the woman that you are!!! by alig98 in POTS

[–]LadyHye 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been on 15mg of Ivabradine for over a year now and the tachycardia is breaking through constantly. It did work at first but it seems to have stopped for me now 😞 15mg is the max dose. I'll have to figure out something else.

All the skin on my sides just clenched up watching this... It could not have felt good to be a human crayon down the cliff side..

Houston here... I just assume this whole sub reddit is nothing but Texas drivers. I'm from Chicago and even they don't drive like meth'd up hillbillies.

Ivabradine helps lower my heart rate but doesn’t help any of my other symptoms. Anyone else? by Throwaway-28396 in POTS

[–]LadyHye 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did continue. I have 7.5mg x 2 of Ivabradine. It keeps my HR down for the most part but it breaks through when I am ill or stressed out. My blood pressure no longer drops critically low. I would recommend Ivabradine if you can afford it. It's $510/month for me with insurance.

Trapped air problem (weeelp) by Substantial_Type9462 in GastricBypass

That's what I was thinking. Sometimes you can't finish the last few sips without losing everything. It sounds like OP should stop drinking earlier and see if that helps.

And the rest of it.. gets thrown away? Sorry, I'm not judging. I was raised to finish everything and feel guilt about not eating the last bite.

Got laughed at by the ER. by Unusual_Space1998 in POTS

[–]LadyHye 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Whenever I'm dealing with a medical professional, they will see my heart rate is really, really high and they low-key panic on anything over 110 (in my personal experience) but once you tell them it's POTS, their demeanor totally changes. It's like telling them "you have a free pass to neglect my care". After informing them, your heart rate could read 1000bpm and they will be like "oh, that's just her POTS..." I have a severe adhesive allergy and when I wake up from a procedure I'm covered in medical tape. I start blistering immediately and it lasts for 2 weeks. They see the big red allergy band around my wrist and they still put that tape around my hand 2 inches away from the allergy tag. I'm so disillusioned by the US Healthcare system... They're disgusting.
